Haverhill state Rep. Andy X. Vargas is praising the state’s decision to designate a Haverhill pharmacy as one of the first allowed to administer the COVID-19 vaccine to Haverhill residents.

We remain focused on advocating for the resources necessary to ensure the quickest delivery of vaccines for our constituents.”
