VA Gulf Coast vaccinates 10,000th Veteran
Challenging logistical accomplishment by VA staff
The Gulf Coast Veterans Health Care System’s Biloxi VA Medical Center administered the organization’s 10,000th dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccination Feb. 13. The shot was given during the organization’s COVID-19 appointment-only vaccination clinic at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Mississippi.
Navy Veteran Camille Spencer received the vaccine during the day-long event, an effort Director Bryan C. Matthews said is the result of the organization’s employees, many of whom are Veterans themselves.
