CHICAGO (WLS) Rush University Medical Center s main lobby has been transformed into a COVID-19 vaccination center. Within 24 hours of the vaccine s arrival, the goal is to begin the process of inoculating the hospital s 12,000 employees. Not only do we have to figure out how to get so many people through, we have to make sure it s happening in a socially distanced manner and safe, said Lisa Weichman Harries, with Rush University Medical Center.
Ten individual vaccination bays are lined up down a long hallway. Appointments will take between 5-7 minutes each. While the vaccination is not mandatory, Rush said most of their employees are willing to take the vaccine. They will be divided in five tiers and then split into two groups.
