With the widespread availability of COVID-19 vaccines, the Sublette COVID-19 Response Group has wound down its interagency command effort and has shifted all pandemic-related activities to Sublette County Public Health. This website (www.sublettewycovid.com) will remain the source for the most current and accurate information on COVID-19 and the vaccination program in Sublette County.
The Sublette COVID-19 Response Group will no longer be maintaining its Facebook page, so please follow Sublette County Public Health on Facebook for the latest information. Find that link here: https://www.facebook.com/Sublettecountypublichealth/ ____________________________________________________
FYI--Public Health will be providing this weekly briefing email on Fridays for weekly updated information for partners, media, and elected officials.
Big thank you to everyone that has been involved with this response effort--we could not be where we are without your ongoing support!
