“I am fortunate to work for a healthcare system that was one of the first in this region to receive the vaccine. Atrium Health first vaccinates primary care health workers, with people like me, who are in support roles, offered appointments for the next few weeks. As we do what we do, my team and I regularly visit our hospitals and locations to support and share with the public the excellent work that is being done. After going through the state’s online process and getting state approval for the vaccine, I consider myself lucky to be one of those who will get the vaccine and I’m so excited to get it. I fully understand the questions as I have asked them. I have been told it is my time for the vaccine, and instead of missing this opportunity and letting the vaccine go to waste, I took this opportunity. I hope that when it comes time for everyone to get the vaccine, they will too. My continuous thanks to all of our healthcare heroes. Let’s continue masking, socializing, and using proper hand hygiene to protect them and all of us. “
