NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) â Georgia James was one of the first Meharry Medical College patients to receive the COVID-19 vaccine Saturday. Iâm just anxious to get this thing, she said.
James was one of dozens who called Meharry to get an appointment. Right now, the college is only vaccinating patients that are age 75 and above. Is that it? James asked as the healthcare worker removed the needle.
Like so many of us, James was eager to get immunity from this dangerous virus. Iâm just glad to get this in my body, she said.
