Public information officer for Sky Lakes Medical Center, Tom Hottman, says over 500 people signed up for the vaccine today.
He says they’re getting the Moderna vaccine.
“There are a lot of smiles, a lot of happy people. Not only the patients, but staff – it represents hope and that’s kind of been a rare commodity in the age of COVID,” said Hottman.
