Roughly 180 teachers in Thompson received the first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine last week, after Cross Lake’s Chief and council offered their extra doses.
Cathy Pellizzaro explains the pop-up site for teachers ran from Thursday to Saturday, which offered the Moderna shot.
Pellizzaro adds that the teachers who were able to receive the first dose feel a sense of relief.
Pellizzaro thanks Chief David Monias and the Cross Lake council for offering and delivering the doses to Thompson teachers.
