A Halifax nurse is the first person to receive the COVID-19 vaccine in Nova Scotia.
"It's a little overwhelming this morning, but feels good, and I was honoured to be asked to be the first person to get the vaccine this morning," Danielle Sheaves, a registered nurse in the designated COVID unit at the Halifax Infirmary, said Wednesday.
She said she will "definitely feel safer" going into work now.
