SALT LAKE CITY â An army of volunteers has joined up to help vaccinate as many Utahns as possible.
The teams made up mostly of medical professionals assist the Salt Lake County Health Department to help distribute the COVID-19 vaccine.
âWe have over 1000 right now in our medical reserve corp. said Dorothy Adams, who assembles the teams. Weâve had a tremendous outpouring of interest in people participating in that which has been fantastic.â
Volunteers work six-hour shifts up to two days a week. Theyâre eligible to get vaccinated, but Adams says their motivation goes beyond that.
