David MacMillan lucked into a dose of Moderna Inc.’s Covid vaccine late on New Year’s Day. While grocery shopping at Giant Food in Washington, D.C., the 31-year-old paralegal passed by the in-store pharmacist who was scrambling to find takers for two doses after a pair of health-care workers missed their appointments. The store was scheduled to close in 10 minutes and the thawed doses would have to be thrown out.
Two of the store’s associates and another customer had already declined the shots. Mr. MacMillan and his 25-year-old friend happily volunteered. “I was thrilled,” said Mr. MacMillan, whose post on TikTok about the experience went viral. “It’s like being told you won the lottery.”
California hospital distributes 850 vaccines in 2.5 hours when refrigerator fails [SFGate, San Francisco]
Jan. 5 A Northern California hospital has shown it’s possible to get the COVID-19 vaccine into the arms of people fast.
Adventist Health Ukiah Valley Medical Center learned Monday morning the refrigerator holding Mendocino County’s most recent distribution of 850 Moderna vaccines had failed.
Racing to beat the clock before the vaccines spoiled, they successfully administered the entire supply in 2.5 hours in collaboration with the county’s health department and skilled nursing facilities.
Judson Howe, the financial officer for the medical center, said they aimed to issue the vaccine to high-risk individuals, but “the highest priority was making sure that nothing went to waste.”
