Cooper University Health Care, one of the first hospitals in New Jersey to receive the new COVID-19 vaccine, began vaccinating its team members on Tuesday, December 15, 2020.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday is a day filled with hope.\u00a0 We are 10 months into this COVID war and we can now finally see a clear path to victory.\u00a0 This virus has caused so much loss and suffering and we are hopeful that today marks the beginning of the end,\u201d said Kevin O\u2019Dowd, JD, Co-CEO of Cooper.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur courageous team has for the past 10 months been battling this virus, and while we must remain vigilant, this vaccine is a real breakthrough and is providing hope to our frontline teams as we go continue to care for COVID-19 patients,\u201d said Anthony J. Mazzarelli, MD, JD, MBE, Co-CEO of Cooper<\/p>\n

Rosetta Oliver, RN, an associate nurse manager at Cooper, was the first team member vaccinated. A 30-year employee of Cooper, Oliver said she was excited to be among the first in the state to receive the vaccine.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am honored to be the first to be vaccinated at Cooper. I have seen how serious this disease is firsthand, so I wanted to do this for my patients, their families, and for my own family,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Cooper received an initial allocation of about 975 doses and anticipates receiving enough doses to offer the vaccination to all 8,000+ Cooper team members over the coming weeks and months. The vaccination is voluntary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
