Letter: My utmost gratitude to all involved in Westport vaccination effort

Posted

To the editor,

We received our first and second vaccination shots on Feb. 6th and 27th at the Dartmouth High School. The Boards of Health, volunteer nurses. police, firemen and medical personnel of the two towns worked together and ensured 1,000 people over 75 years of age received vaccinations with little waiting, plenty of room for social distancing, opportunities to sit if necessary and many smiles. 

This was a vast undertaking requiring much organization and the volunteers working at the clinic deserve more congratulations for a job well done than words can say.  Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
