COLUMBUS, Ga. (WTVM) - Five frontline healthcare workers at Piedmont Columbus Regional Hospital were among the first healthcare employees in Columbus to receive the COVID-19 vaccine Monday.
“We have been waiting for it for awhile, so hopefully this will mark the end,” said Dr. Gurkeerat Singh MD.
Piedmont is not requiring all employees to take Pfizer and BioNTech’s vaccine, but those who chose to receive it Monday said it’s the edge they need to continue to fight the pandemic.
