WASHINGTON - The first doses of a coronavirus vaccine were administered Monday in the Washington region, marking the start of a logistically massive undertaking that officials hope will halt a virus that has infected more than 540,000 residents and killed nearly 11,000 in the area.
Governments and hospitals are hosting events this week to show residents getting vaccinated as part of an effort to foster public trust in the vaccine. D.C., Maryland and Virginia are reserving the first shipments for health-care workers, first responders and nursing home residents.
