UCHealth has been preparing for the arrival of the vaccine. Part of the
plans have included finding rooms to administer the shots — a feat
made trickier by the fact that the facilities need to be large enough for
people to follow public health guidelines and stay at least 6 feet apart,
said Michelle Barron, senior medical director of infection prevention
[and professor of medicine at CU School of Medicine]. UCHealth also
has ordered more ultra-cold freezers to help store and redistribute
Pfizer’s vaccine. “We know that we will be the keeper, but it’s not all
ours,” Barron said.
