More JFRD employees to get vaccinated for COVID-19 Chief Powers says 1,600 JFRD employees to get vaccinated at Prime Osborne Convention Center Tags: More firefighters are expected to get the shot starting Monday. JFRD Chief Keith Powers says 1,600 JFRD employees will get vaccinated at the Prime Osborne Convention Center, where a special clinic has been set up. The city says this is important because the 900 paramedics will be giving the vaccine to the public as early as next month. Last week, the first group of JFRD employees -- about 25 people, including Powers -- received their first dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. Powers says he hopes this will set an example for the department.
