the masking, encourage the vaccination and we will have these additional vaccine requirements starting on the 20th. just started offering other booster shot of pfizer or moderna -- for people who are immuno compromised. the rest of the population will be eligible starting september 20. >> how long that lasts is kind of anybody's guess. made we find ourselves getting another shot eight months after. the best guess might be that it will get us up to a level of immunity that was at or better than we were after the second shot. it should last every bit as long if not longer. >> dr. colfax stressed how important it is for those that are immuno compromised get
