Rebecca Meeker’s mask concealed her apparent smile, but she appeared genuinely excited.
The scene at Crown Pointe Care Center on the Northwest Side played on a video monitor while Gov. Mike DeWine spoke, catching him and other guests unaware. They belatedly applauded despite the missed cue.
“You’re No. 1 in the state,” DeWine told Meeker. “How do you feel?”
She responded, “Great.”
Geneva Dennison, wearing a sweatshirt proclaiming “LOVE,” was next.
“I’m excited to get it done,” she said after receiving the vaccine. “Thank you for doing this.”
“This is the day we have all been waiting for,” the governor said. “I can’t tell you how excited I am that today has arrived.”
