Truman Medical Center registered nurse Raquel Garcia administers the PfizerBioNTech COVID-19 vaccine to 80-year-old Virginia Davis at Morning Star Missionary Baptist Church on Tuesday.
The first Kansas Citians who are not healthcare workers or first responders were able to receive the COVID-19 vaccination Tuesday at Morning Star Missionary Baptist Church.
Older and at-risk Kansas City residents lined up Tuesday to receive the PfizerBioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, thanks to an outreach effort by Truman Medical Center and University Health.
“It’s one great thing to come to the community rather than the community having to go to the hospital,” said Rev. John Modest Miles, pastor of Morning Star Missionary Baptist Church.
