LebTown December 15, 2020 1 min read Box containing first 975 doses of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is wheeled into WellSpan Good Samaritan Hospital. (LebTown photo) When else, and where else, would the unloading of a plain cardboard box from an ordinary white commercial van elicit a round of applause and cheers from a line of weary health care frontliners standing out in the cold? Probably only in the midst of an interminable viral pandemic, if the box holds 975 doses of a long-awaited vaccine, a scene playing out at numerous hospitals around the country today. Advertisement The mood went from festive to electric as the WellSpan van rolled up to Good Samaritan Hospital’s main entrance at 10:30 this morning, Tuesday, Dec. 15. The box, maybe two feet square and three feet tall, was placed on a hand truck by the driver and rolled into the hospital’s main entrance as employees lined the way.
