VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Across Hampton Roads, more municipalities are moving into phase 1b of coronavirus vaccinations.
Officials at the Virginia Beach health department began vaccinating people in that category, today.
At the Convention Center, frontline essential workers – like Virginia Beach teachers – are eligible for the shot.
“It’s quick. It’s painless, and I was in and out," said Tracy Houchins, a teacher at Kempsville Middle School. “They would like us to be back in the building with the kids, and I just really want to be safe and get back to normal.”
