WYOMING (WOOD-AM) - Hospitals in West Michigan are making final preparations to receive Pfizer's coronavirus vaccine after it gains emergency use approval.
A Food and Drug Administration panel will consider whether to grant an emergency use authorization today.
"This is really the light at the end of the tunnel," Metro Health - University of Michigan Health Chief Medical Officer Ronald Grifka told WOOD-TV.
Grifka says his hospital has already installed the needed ultra-cold freezers, though they don't quite know how many doses they'll receive initially.
Frontline healthcare workers will get vaccinated first, Grifka said.
