Hoffman Summerwood stages vaccine clinic
Residents of Hoffman SummerWood, a senior living community in West Hartford, received their first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine on Jan. 12. Nearly 98% of residents participated in the clinic, including one centenarian.
Arnold Helfand, who will turn 101 on Feb. 5, making him the oldest Summerwood resident to receive the vaccine, saw the vaccine as a way of reconnecting with family. “I want to see my grandchildren and my great grandchildren, but more than that, I want them to see me!” he exclaimed.
