    Drs. Drew Weissman & Katalin Karikó—whose mRNA discovery at @PennMedicine helped pave the way for #COVID19 vaccines—received their first dose of the @pfizer/@BioNTech_Group shot together. They say, “The benefit is huge & there’s little to no risk.” spr.ly/6013HrOSP

    Penn Medicine’s first COVID-19 vaccinations began this morning at Pennsylvania Hospital. Emergency department nurse Eric Young, who had just ended his night shift, was the first health system staff member to receive the vaccine — to applause from those gathered.
