Prospect ECHN and Trinity Health of New England officials confirmed Friday they are prepared to distribute the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine to health care workers as early as next week once the Food and Drug Administration approves the vaccine.
A U.S. government advisory panel to the FDA gave approval for the vaccine this week, and the FDA gave the final green light Friday night.
Daniel Delgallo, president of business development for ECHN, which owns Manchester Memorial Hospital and Rockville General Hospital, said Friday that the hospitals will receive 975 doses of the vaccine on Monday once officials meet the criteria to have special freezers kept at minus 70 degree for three consecutive days for the vaccines.
