ALBANY The first Capital Region resident was vaccinated against COVID-19 on Monday, a major milestone in a pandemic that has killed at least 443 people in the region and altered everyday life for nearly everyone else.
In the space of several hours, Albany Medical Center took delivery of its allotment of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, thawed it from a hundred degrees below zero to room temperature, and began administering it to its employees at greatest risk due either to the nature of their jobs or their own personal health factors.
