President Jason Jennings says vaccinations begin Friday morning of health care workers taking care of patients, particularly those with COVID-19.
Jennings hopes to complete vaccinations by Christmas of the 195 doses that were received in the first shipment.
Jennings says dry ice kept a 66 pound container that looks like a large pizza box at minus 70 degrees Celsius (minus 94 degrees Fahrenheit).

Jennings reminds everyone to continue preventative measures and to contact your health care provider when you start experiencing symptoms.
