White Plains Hospital
Frontline workers in Westchester hospitals received their very first doses of the FDA-approved inoculation against the coronavirus.
With a vaccine rollout plan in place and the first doses of Pfizer and Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccines arriving in New York, Westchester has begun the lengthy processes of inoculating its population against the horrific virus.
“I’m hoping that this is the beginning of the end, and that’s exactly why I wanted to get the shot today,” says Respiratory Therapist Brian Benjamin of White Plains Hospital. Benjamin is one of five frontline workers to be vaccinated first at WPH, in a special event including hospital staff and White Plains Mayor Tom Roach.
