MOREHEAD CITY â On Thursday afternoon, inside an unassuming auxiliary building off of Bridges Street, the first doses of Pfizerâs COVID-19 vaccine were administered to frontline workers at Carteret Health Care.
âI feel great, fantastic, Iâm very excited,â Dr. Nicole DâAndrea, an OBGYN physician at CHC, said after she became the first person in Carteret County to officially receive the vaccine.
The room erupted into cheers as the first shots were administered, and some people became overwhelmed with emotion as they sat down to receive theirs.   Â
