Durham, N.C. Some health care workers across North Carolina received their first dose of coronavirus vaccine Monday after the initial shipment of Pfizer-BioNTech s vaccine arrived at nearly a dozen hospitals across the state.
Charlotte-based Atrium Health was the first to administer the vaccine in the state, with Dr. Katie Passaretti, the system s medical director of infection prevention, getting the first shot. More than a dozen of her co-workers were expected to be vaccinated by the end of the day.
Wake Forest Baptist Health in Winston-Salem was actually the first hospital in North Carolina to receive the vaccine from UPS early Monday, and workers started getting vaccinated there Monday afternoon.
