This week, North Carolina received its first shipment of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. Tuesday, during his weekly COVID-19 press conference, Governor Roy Cooper announced that the vaccine was distributed to 42 hospitals across state. The state is still unsure how many doses it will receive weekly. Governor Cooper said that the federal government has told him that each Friday the state will get information about the following week s shipment, then the state has a few hours to identify where to direct the shipments. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Secretary Mandy Cohen warned that until a second vaccine is approved it will still be a bit of time before the metrics are impacted by the vaccine. It is expected that widespread distribution of the vaccine will be possible by Spring 2021.
