The extraordinary success of vaccinations throughout Washington, working across sectors, embodies the collective and innovative spirit of the state.
“Recognized as a national leader and model, the Department of Health (DOH) Vaccine Action Command and Coordination System (VACCS) Center was formed in late January 2021 by Governor Jay Inslee in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The VACCS Center created public-private partnerships leveraging the talent and resources of the private sector in support of the state in achieving the initial goal of administration of 45,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses a day in the safest, fastest, most equitable and efficient manner. This report details how success depended upon partnerships across all sectors.”
