(WDAM) - Frontline healthcare workers at South Central Regional Medical Center received their first doses of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine Tuesday. The Moderna vaccine arrived at SCRMC on Monday, and distribution began Tuesday. “Sometimes there’s a little hesitancy to slow down,” said Dr. Kendrick Sparks, a hospitalist at South Central Regional Medical Center. “We as physicians know, I know personally, I know that I have an obligation to keep moving forward. So, this is a very important step. It’s the next step and the first of two steps, and I’m really hoping that as a body here we can really rally behind the community to get the vaccine.”

(WDAM) - The first shipments of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine have made their way to the Magnolia State. It’s been described by healthcare workers as the first of its kind, and local doctors are breaking down how the vaccine works. “We are just telling our body to reproduce the spike protein by which we then make antibodies to that so effectively. What this does is it doesn’t allow the SARS-COV2 virus to bind to our cells, which then effectively just kills it in our system because it can’t replicate itself,” said Dr. Rambod Rouhbakhsh with the Hattiesburg Clinic and Forrest General Hospital.
