COUDERSPORT â In a historic moment that many hope will mark the âbeginning of the endâ of the pandemic, UPMC Cole vaccinated several front-line health care workers with the first doses of Pfizerâs COVID-19 vaccine on Monday.
It is anticipated that UPMC Cole will be able to provide a vaccine to all its front-line health care workers who wish to receive it by the end of January.
âWorking in the intensive care unit here at UPMC Cole, I see how this virus affects our patients, the grief that it brings to their family members, and the toll itâs taking on my colleagues,â said Amy Hewitt, RN, ICU, UPMC Cole. âIâll do whatever it takes to help in this battle against the virus. I hope that by getting the vaccine, I can show that itâs safe and effective so that others are encouraged to consider it when itâs available to them.â
