ATLANTA - The Georgia Department of Public Health and the Governor s Office released new details Tuesday about the expansion of the COVID-19 vaccine during the first phase of distribution. Since we began our COVID-19 vaccination campaign in our health district on December 18th, our county health departments have vaccinated some of the most critically vulnerable people in our communities, said Zachary Taylor, M.D., M.S., interim health director of the North Georgia Health District, based in Dalton. Now we want to rapidly and effectively administer COVID-19 vaccine to even more members of our community.

Addie Allen, a licensed practical nurse, administers Pfizer s COVID-19 vaccine to Patrick O Ferrall, a certified registered nurse anesthetist, at Hamilton Medical Center on Monday.Â
This is history in the making, Addie Allen said Monday as she administered Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine to employees of Hamilton Medical Center. We need (this vaccine) desperately, the licensed practical nurse added. I m so thankful and glad to be part of this process.
The shot was painless and simple, said Patrick O Ferrall, a certified registered nurse anesthetist who was among those to receive the vaccine Monday. I have kids and an immunocompromised mother-in-law, so I m getting (the vaccine to protect) them, too, in addition to himself and his patients.
