John Upton, BGAV Executive Director, had an informative Zoom meeting with Dr. Danny Avula, Virginia’s Vaccine Coordinator. Dr. Avula answered specific questions from pastors relayed by Upton regarding the science, safety, and distribution of the Covid-19 vaccine. The 44-minute conversation is presented in its entirety, and permission is granted to use this in BGAV churches only in its full version.
Virginia Baptist Disaster Response is currently assisting Henrico County Emergency Management in a regional vaccination clinic being held at the Richmond International Raceway in Henrico, VA. We have agreed to prepare lunch and dinner to approximately 125 doctors, nurses, and other frontline workers for the entire event.
