Christmas is unfortunately not gonna be what we all want it to be this year, but I can still find a tremendous amount of hope and joy and that we have the vaccine, and I really think that’s one of the best Christmas presents any of us can get, Elizabeth Thurstone, COVID floor nurse, said.

COVID-19 vaccination is beginning and based on national guidance, the initial supply of the vaccine is being prioritized for those at greatest risk of exposure, including healthcare workers and long-term care facility residents. For now, it is too early to know when we may have additional guidance around vaccine availability for our patients and community. In the meantime, we encourage you to remain vigilant by wearing a mask, practicing good hand hygiene and maintaining social distancing to help slow the spread of COVID-19.
