COOK- A mix of care, confidence, and relief filled the air late Friday morning at Cook Community Center, as staff members of Cook Hospital expertly and empathetically walked people through the process of getting their first coronavirus vaccine dose.
It was midway through the final day of a three-day, 300-dose community vaccination clinic administered by the hospital, and while outside of the clinic one might expect Chief Operating Officer Julie Lesemann to be focused on those duties, she was in full registered nurse mode as she prepared to inject Daniel Polman, of Aurora, with the vaccine.
“Hopefully it’s worth it,” Polman said. “I’ve been searching here and there and this one popped up. Now, of course, they’re all showing up, the ones I previously saw. But we had this, so we just got it over with. It was a nice drive today anyway.”
