Lee Health will host a Virtual Town Hall meeting on Thursday, Jan. 7, at 11 a.m. The Facebook Live event is open to the public and will feature a discussion with Lee Health leaders about the COVID-19 vaccine, as well as include an interactive question and answer session.

Since the start of the pandemic, Lee Health has remained committed to transparency. Keeping the community informed about the current state of the virus, the vaccine and the safety of its hospitals is a top priority for the health system. Shortly after the pandemic broke out, Lee Health began issuing daily communications to the community, its employees and news organizations to keep everyone apprised on how to stay safe and healthy.

“As health care leaders, we want to educate citizens about the facts related to the COVID-19 vaccine,” said Larry Antonucci, M.D., MBA, Lee Health president & CEO. “We look forward to the opportunity to address the Southwest Florida community and provide them with the information they need to know to keep themselves and their loved ones safe.”

The virtual event will be moderated by Lindsey Morton, Senior Creative Services Project Manager at Lee Health, and will feature Larry Antonucci, M.D., MBA, President & CEO at Lee Health and Dr. Stephanie Stovall, Medical Director, Quality and Safety at Golisano Children’s Hospital of Southwest Florida.

The event is free and no subscription or login is required. For those without access to Facebook, the event will also be live streamed at LeeHealth.org.

Upon conclusion of the town hall, it will be posted to the Lee Health website for playback.
