Coronavirus vaccines could begin arriving in Pennsylvania as soon as next month – but don’t put your mask away anytime soon, the state’s top health official said Thursday, according to a report.
Dr. Rachel Levine, the state’s health secretary, warned that early supplies of any vaccines that receive government approval will likely be in short supply at first – with health care workers, first responders and people at highest risk expected to be treated first.
That means most Pennsylvania residents can expect to be wearing masks “well into 2021, maybe to the end of 2021,” Levine said, according to PennLive.com.
