Colorado Joins Public Health Alliance
Colorado has joined a new public health alliance with over a dozen Democrat-led states to share public health data and best practices.
The state's governor, Jared Polis, announced that Colorado is a founding member of the Governors Public Health Alliance (GPHA), a non-partisan coalition of governors working together to share data, best practices, and coordinate public health policy across state lines.
Colorado's decision to join the alliance comes after the state passed a law earlier this year allowing it to follow the guidance on vaccines of national medical groups, in addition to a federal vaccine advisory committee.
The GPHA is described as a coalition of governors working together to share data, best practices, and coordinate public health policy.
