1:06Now PlayingThe biggest vaccination campaign in U.S. history kicked off Monday as health workers rolled up their sleeves for shots to protect them from COVID-19 and start beating back the pandemic — a day of optimism even as the nation's death toll closed in on 300,000.
At Long Island Jewish Medical Center in Queens, New York, Dr. Yves Duroseau, the chairman of emergency medicine at Lenox Hill Hospital received his injection and calmly told reporters that receiving the vaccine was "the first step towards hope for getting to a place where we do not have to worry."
Critical care nurse Sandra Lindsay said she "felt a huge sense of relief after" after receiving the vaccine.
For health care workers, who along with nursing home residents will be first in line for vaccination, hope is tempered by grief and the sheer exhaustion of months spent battling a coronavirus that still is surging in the U.S. and around the world.
While the U.S. hopes for enough of both vaccines together to vaccinate 20 million people by the end of the month, there won't be enough for the average person to get a shot until spring.
