Cox South Hospital in Springfield has started giving out the coronavirus vaccine to its workers.

If you’re unhappy with how 2020 went, I highly recommend getting the COVID-19 Vaccine for a better 2021. So excited that I got the privilege to be part of the first group at CoxHealth to get the vaccine! @CoxHealth @SDECoxHealth pic.twitter.com/BhhOZFl5DM
