His entire family was infected several months ago.
So when the opportunity to get the vaccine and make it available on campus arose, he grabbed it.
“It is important to really combat COVID so we can get back to in-person instruction,” Marbach said Monday morning just minutes after receiving the first shot during an on-campus vaccination event. “Having recovered from it and knowing what a risk it was to family and friends, I wanted to mitigate the risk and get ahead of it.”
Twenty-two people took advantage of the vaccination clinic on campus Monday. It was organized with a local Walmart and through the help of state Health Commissioner Judith Persichilli, who is a member of the Georgian Court University Board of Trustees.
“In Ocean County, we have plenty of vaccine available and you can pretty much call up today and if you want to get a vaccination shot we’ll be able to get you a shot sometime tomorrow,” Quinn said during a meeting Wednesday night of the county Board of Commissioners. “So we re asking people to please get the word out, because a lot of people are still sitting out there on the fence, not sure whether or not they want to do it or not, or are not believing that it’s available.”
Ocean County residents may call 732-380-5079 or 833-544-0288 with general questions about the pandemic and the vaccine.
