PEORIA, Ill. The Peoria City/County Health Department announced Tuesday local hospitals are still awaiting their shipments of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine.
“We don’t have shipping confirmation as of yet,” said Chief Nurse Officer at OSF Healthcare St. Francis Medical Center Jennifer Hopwood.
Unlike the process of receiving Pfizer’s vaccine, shipments will come directly from Moderna, according to Hopwood.
Hopwood also said about 10% of the workforce who come into contact with coronavirus patients at OSF St. Francis Medical Center and its surrounding locations received Pfizer’s vaccine last week.
