DESOTO CO., Miss. (WMC) - Baptist-Desoto Hospital in Southaven, Mississippi will receive the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine on Tuesday and start administering it to staff Wednesday.
State Health Officer Dr. Thomas Dobbs receive the Pfizer vaccine Monday afternoon. Dobbs said that they are lucky to have a vaccine that appears to be very effective with a favorable side effect profile.
”Now to be honest we know and Dr. Byers and Jim expect that maybe we’ll have some swelling after the shot and maybe even a little bit of achiness tomorrow, but that is so much worth it. We know how deadly and disruptive coronavirus has been to the state of Mississippi, Dobbs said.”
