The Guam National Guard is now supporting both the Okkodo High School and Southern Region Community Health Center COVID-19 public vaccination sites in support of the Guam Department of Public Health and Social Services. 

In addition to providing traffic flow, crowd management and patient inprocessing, the Guard is expecting to assist with vaccine administration using combat medics soon. 

Pvt. 1st. Class Charles Santos was tasked to sanitize the post-vaccine observation area with a device that sprays isopropyl alcohol mist and ultraviolet light. "I'm here for anything I can do to make a difference," said Santos.
