Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine
Over the past few weeks, Texas has been grappling with a major question: who gets immediate access to the first round of COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer, set to arrive Monday?
A little over a week ago, the Texas Department of State Health Services gave the most detailed answer yet to that looming question. It published a list of hospitals in 34 Texas counties who will get shipments of the vaccine in the first week.
Big hospital systems associated with the Texas Medical Center made the list
, like Texas Houston Methodist, Texas Children's and Memorial Hermann. Overall, Harris County health workers are set to receive 50,000 initial doses.
