Residents at peopleCare in Tavistock Have Been Given Their Second Dose

Earl Morrison was able to celebrate his 95th birthday this week by getting his second dose of the Pfizer BioNtech vaccine.

TAVISTOCK - Residents of peopleCare in Tavistock have been given their second dose of the Pfizer Biontech vaccine.

peopleCare is one of the hardest hit long term care homes in the region during the second wave. They had a total of 47 residents test positive along with 38 staff members. 10 residents have also passed away with the virus in the past two months.

Today though, they are all smiles after getting the second dose of the vaccine this week. Earl Morrison was the first resident to receive the vaccine in Oxford County back in January.

On Tuesday he was given his second dose, one day before his 95th birthday.

Earl's story was shared on social media where he stated how happy he was to get the second dose.

"I'm happy to share my vaccination journey with the world! If it will make someone else feel better about getting it - look at me, 95 years old today & I got it, you can too!"
