Mass. firefighters union says vaccination plan lacks coordination The Associated Press, Telegram & Gazette © PFFM Professional Fire Fighters of Massachusetts
BOSTON The head of the statewide firefighters union said the state s plan to get firefighters vaccinated against the coronavirus lacks coordination and communication.
Richard MacKinnon Jr., president of the Professional Fire Fighters of Massachusetts, said the state is leaving the vaccinations of first responders up to local boards of health, with varying results. It just seems like there s been a lack of plan, MacKinnon told the Boston Herald on Tuesday. It s just an overall lack of coordination and communication.
The state should be setting up vaccination centers and training the firefighters themselves many of whom already are EMTs or paramedics to administer the vaccine to their colleagues.
