Where are the first COVID-19 vaccines going? We don't exactly know. State workers unpack the first shipment of the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine to New Hampshire. Published: 12/16/2020 3:53:09 PM As the first allotments of vaccines were distributed across the country this week, neighboring states broadcast who the first recipients would be. Vermont Gov. Phil Scott informed the public on Monday that 1,950 doses were split between the State Vaccine Depot and the University of Vermont Medical Center in Burlington to be given to front line medical workers. Maine’s Department of Health and Human Services published a comprehensive list showing nearly 6,000 doses going to seven hospitals during the first week of rollout. Maine, which has a similar population as New Hampshire but is nearly four times the size in geographic area, named each facility receiving Pfizer doses. State officials announced that during the second week about 3,000 more Pfizer does would be handed out, along with 22,000 Moderna vaccine shots going to nearly every medical facility in the state.
