Almost a year since Pennsylvania was shut down by the COVID-19 pandemic, upending countless lives, Lancaster County marks a milestone – its mass vaccination center is opening. The mission of the new Lancaster County Community Vaccination Center, located in the former Bon-Ton department store at Park City Center, is to “protect, educate and serve our community,” said Dr. Michael Ripchinski, site director and chief clinical officer at Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health. That task will begin Wednesday at 8 a.m. when the first of about 500 people will be vaccinated as part of a “soft opening.” “This center represents, for us, a sign of hope,” Ripchinski said.
