MARQUETTE UP Health System-Marquette announced the arrival of its initial allotment of the COVID-19 vaccine Thursday, with shots administered to health care workers on Friday.
“We are beginning to offer the vaccine to our front line health care heroes per CDC (U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) and state guidelines today,” a Friday email from UPHS-Marquette states. “We encourage everyone in our community to be a hero and get vaccinated once the vaccine is more widely available to our community members, hopefully in the coming months. Thank you to our entire team for helping to make this day in history a reality.”
