Pictures of a team of healthcare workers who went car to car, after getting stuck in a snowstorm, to administer Covid-19 vaccine in the US are winning people over. Chances are their story will make you want to applaud them too.
The images, along with the incident, were shared on the official Facebook profile of Josephine County Public Health.
“When Josephine County Public Health staff and volunteers concluded their mass vaccination event at the Illinois Valley High School this afternoon, they never guessed they might be setting up an impromptu clinic on the way back to Grants Pass. But that's exactly what happened when a snowstorm stranded about 20 personnel on Highway 199 near Hayes Hill,” they wrote while sharing the images on Facebook.
In the next few lines, they described how the healthcare officials started walking in the snow to go from car to car offering the stranded motorists a chance to receive the vaccine.
“JCPH Director Mike Weber said it was one of the coolest operations he'd been a part of,” the organisation wrote and concluded the post.
