Philadelphia took its first steps toward vaccinating school employees today with a clinic to inoculate over 300 school nurses.
Nurse Monica Harmon said she’s eager to get back to working inside John Bartram High School in Southwest Philadelphia.
“I didn’t sign up to work remotely,” she said. “I signed up to work with the students and the staff and the families.”
Harmon added that she plans to post a picture of herself getting the vaccine and send it to the school community. She hopes it will inspire others to get inoculated when it’s their turn.
