SOMERSWORTH – Teams of two volunteers and one health care professional walked door-to-door Wednesday to administer second doses of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine to residents in five of the Somersworth Housing Authority s buildings.
The hallways were lined with residents who sat ready, poised in their kitchen chairs they were told to place in their apartment doorway. The Strafford County Public Health Network volunteers went to each door, carrying a bright purple duffle bag filled with supplies to administer the vaccine and handouts on what side effects to expect.
The clinic was a follow up to first-dose vaccines administered in February to Somersworth Housing Authority residents in the Filion Terrace Apartments, Queensbury Mill Apartments, Charpentier Apartments and Albert Jack LaBonte Maple St. Apartments.
