Kristina Erickson, a seventh-year Phoenix educator, received her initial dose of the COVID-19 vaccine (Pfizer) just after midnight on January 13, 2021. Ms. Erickson describes her experience as both exciting and nerve-wracking during and after her visit to the State Farm immunization station. She states that the process was surprisingly organized, despite the long line of cars awaiting their appointment. During our interview, Ms. Erickson was forthcoming about her decision to get the vaccine. She said, "I really want to get back into the classroom. If I can meet CDC guidelines so I can see my kids again, I'll do it!" On February 5th, Kristina will be returning for her second and final dose.
