Governor Phil Scott says the first batch of COVID-19 vaccine is being distributed across Vermont, but not at the rate he had expected.
On Tuesday afternoon the first Vermonter, a nurse at the UVM Medical Center, received the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. Health Commissioner Dr. Mark Levine calls the initial receipt and roll out of the vaccine in Vermont and across the country an historic step. “All hospitals have now received their complete allocation of vaccine for the first week and they’ve been busy vaccinating their higher risk health care staff. We’re providing guidance to hospitals regarding the remaining higher risk health care workers who don’t work within their walls but will still need to obtain their vaccine from the hospital in their region. And our pharmacy partners, CVS, Walgreens and HealthDirect/Kinney, are scheduled to begin clinics at long term care facilities next week.”
