Hawke said he suffered no ill effects from the shot.
The Ottawa County Health Department and North Ottawa Community Health System started offering vaccinations to medical personnel Friday, Dec. 18. Both organizations received 975 doses of the vaccine.
Since then, Hawke said about half of the GHDPS officers who possess a medical license (paramedic, EMT or Medical First Responder) have been vaccinated, all on a voluntary basis.
Emergency workers will continue to be vaccinated by appointment, he said.
The Ottawa County Health Department administered 379 doses of the vaccine Dec. 18-23, according to County Communications Specialist Kristina Wieghmink. More doses were administered Monday.
