The White House aims to reinvigorate national COVID-19 vaccination efforts through a six-week campaign announced Nov. 22.

The vaccination campaign will focus on seniors, communities hit hardest by COVID-19 and those living in rural areas. The White House has also allocated $350 million for community health centers and $125 million for community-based organizations to help increase the pace of vaccinations.

The White House is also tapping the healthcare workforce to encourage vaccinations for older Americans.
