Hospitals never sleep, but it was a particularly wide-awake dawn at MU Health Care as frontline health-care workers received their first doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine early Wednesday. Christelle Ilboudo, doctor of pediatric infectious diseases, was the first to receive the vaccine. She works with children who have contracted COVID-19. “There is hope that we are about to see the end to this pandemic,” Ilboudo said. “Although there’s still a long road ahead, this week has suddenly been a sign that we have better ways of managing this and getting ahead of this.” At Boone Hospital Center, staff began receiving the vaccine Thursday morning.
