Valley Health System workers prepared Friday for the areaâs first batches of a COVID-19 vaccine they expect to arrive next week pending the drugâs approval.
Valley Healthâs Vice President for Population Health Dr. Jeff Feit spoke by phone Friday about how the regionâs hospital network plans to administer the vaccine once in hand.
âEver since March, weâve been in the thick of things when it comes to coronavirus and we have this incredible team that is doing remarkable work to be prepared and be proactive and take care of the community,â Feit said. âOver the last four weeks, weâve seen a real surge in the number of cases and our team is just doubling down on their work to ensure the safety of the community.
