Even fire and smoke can’t stop The Vaccinators
Moved operation to parking lot to keep vaccinating Veterans
Four registered nurses at the New Port Richey Outpatient Clinic call themselves The Vaccinators – and they take that title seriously.
They take it so seriously that they continued providing Veterans with the COVID-19 vaccination even after smoke from a brush fire outside the clinic forced everyone to evacuate the building.
The Vaccinators are (above, left to right) Laura Aponte, Terese Fields, Alina Harris and Lisa Aldrich-Olavarria. They had spent most of January 26 providing COVID-19 vaccinations to Veterans at the clinic.
