Fort Bragg soldiers COVID-19 get vaccine at Womack Army Medical Center

Now, she’s trying to keep people from getting the disease.
Lomasney, chief of allergy and immunology at Fort Bragg’s Womack Army Medical Center, spent eight weeks in Texas working in the Intensive Care Unit of a hospital that was overrun by patients with the disease.
“Most were very sick,” she said.
Lomasney said she would not wish COVID-19 on anyone.
“I’ve seen the destruction this disease can do on individuals, communities, families,” she said. “For every single person who gets infected and has a bad outcome, that’s a family that’s devastated.”
This week, Lomasney has been helping with efforts to give the COVID-19 vaccine to healthcare workers and soldiers at Fort Bragg. Womack officials received a shipment of the Pfizer vaccine from the Department of Defense on Tuesday and started vaccinating healthcare workers at about 1 p.m. that day. On Thursday, dozens of soldiers were getting the vaccine at the hospital.
