A Manchester pharmacy was among the first in the nation to administer the new one-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine last week.
Brehme Drug offered the newest COVID-19 vaccine to about 100 residents during a special clinic at the Manchester Fire Station on Saturday. Owner and pharmacist Ashley Brehme says it’s a good feeling to get the shot in people’s arms so quickly.
In addition to those 100 shots, Brehme Drug has been able to vaccinate an additional 500 people with the Moderna vaccine over the past few months, with the priority going to their most vulnerable patients. Brehme says they’ve been able to vaccinate most of their patients ages 65 and older, so last Friday, they opened up a waiting list to the general public.
