Pine Island COVID-19 Task Force discusses protocols for first and second vaccinations
By PAULETTE LeBLANC - | Jan 20, 2021
The Pine Island COVID-19 Task Force meeting on Monday, Jan. 11, focused on vaccinations.
Task Force member Dr. Jim Koopman said he hasn’t found it reasonable to get the vaccination as of yet, while fellow board member Martha Huard said she waited in line for hers.
“I’m hearing they’re supposed to contact us for the second one,” said Huard, “but I don’t know how they’re going to do that for all of us.”
According to Huard, it is her understanding that the second vaccination is supposed to extend immunity, not increase it, but Koopman said it definitely boosts it.
