By Capt. David Bedard 134th Public Affairs Detachment JOINT BASE ELMENDORF-RICHARDSON, Alaska -- Soldiers of the Alaska Army National Guard Medical Detachment hosted a COVID-19 vaccination drive Jan. 24, 2021, at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson (JBER) as part of ongoing efforts to vaccinate the force. Dozens of Soldiers made their way to the JBER Armory’s drill hall floor by unit in order to facilitate social distancing and efficient administration of the vaccine, said Alaska Army National Guard 1st Lt. Jordan Gray, a registered nurse and Medical Detachment deputy director of clinical operations. Kept in a frozen storage container, Medical Detachment medics removed one vial at a time containing 10 doses of the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine before pulling a single dose into a syringe and administering it to volunteer Soldiers who completed pre-immunization screenings.
