WILMINGTON, Delaware (WPVI) Health officials in Delaware say more than 8,000 initial doses of the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine will be distributed in the coming days.
Upon Delaware s receipt of the vaccine, which is required to be kept at below-freezing temperatures, health care systems will be able to begin vaccinating their frontline employees within 24 hours. The arrival of the Pfizer vaccine is welcome news after nine long months fighting COVID-19, said Governor John Carney. This vaccine will help protect our health care workers who are working day and night to care for the sick and save lives. But we are not in the clear yet. We are still in for a very difficult winter.
