Essentia Health administers 100,000 COVID-19 vaccine dose

Essentia Health celebrated a major milestone in the fight against COVID-19 earlier this week, when it administered its 100,000th vaccine dose.

“We have been presented with many numbers in the past year: cases, tests and, unfortunately, deaths from COVID-19,” said Essentia Health CEO David C. Herman, MD. “This number is different from the others in that it represents protection from COVID-19, and with it the hope that our communities can recover and heal from the difficulties of the previous year. I am very grateful for those who developed the vaccines, and proud of the Essentia Health team whose heroic efforts have administered the vaccine to as many people as possible, as quickly as possible.”
