Top 5 things to do after taking the vaccine
More than two million people have already received their first vaccine doses, but there’s still a long way to go.
Doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech shot are nearly ready for distribution in the first tranche of 2 million, and the Moderna vaccine won’t be done until the end of this month.
As the vaccine rollout moves ahead, some people have been encouraged to call it a day. But that certainly isn’t the case for Carrie Vand, who has been busy fulfilling orders since receiving her shot on December 15, which she says is a demonstration of the strength of her confidence and the neighborhood.
“I don’t feel that the vaccine is that big of a deal. I feel like it’s just something that we have to do. We have to do it and protect ourselves because we don’t want anything like that to happen to us,” said Vand, who lives in Atlantic City, a broadly mainstream city that like numerous others in the U.S. has been profoundly affected by the Covid pandemic.
But during a time like this, Vand and other first responders can certainly attest to how strong of an ally their faith can be. “One thing I will always say with my faith, it acts like my armor. It guards me," she said.
Those first responders who administer the first vaccine shots will have a long day ahead of them, as well.
