BAKER - The parking lot at Miracle Place Church was packed with vehicles Friday afternoon.
Qualified seniors, at least 70 years old, all lined up to receive their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
"With everything going on and especially at my age, I had to be here," patient Harry Langford said.
Langford was one of the firsts in line.
"People wait in line for tennis shoes and other accessories, but I think this is much more important," he said.
Bishop Harris Hayes followed close behind and was also eager to get the shot.
"I want to be healthy. I don't want to catch the virus," Hayes said.
