Ouray School special education teacher Evelyn Nelson brought her 6-year-old twin daughters, Estes and Everlea, to watch as she received her COVID-19 vaccine, because she wanted them to see it wasn’t painful or scary. She and several other teachers who got their first doses of the Modema vaccine Saturday said the shots are an extra line of defense against the virus to keep kids in school and return to normal sooner.
