Prevea Health began administering second doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine to its health care workers yesterday, along with those at its HSHS hospital partners in Wisconsin.
The second dose, which is required for maximum effectiveness (94%) of the vaccine, is given 21 days after the first dose.
Additional health care workers at HSHS hospitals in Wisconsin and Prevea Health locations throughout Wisconsin will receive the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine in the coming days and weeks.
As they wait for vaccines to become more widely available continues, HSHS Wisconsin and Prevea Health encourage everyone to do their part to decrease the number of COVID-19 cases in Wisconsin by continuing with diligent hand washing, social distancing, masking, and staying home if you are not feeling well.
