vaccine.
Linda Lund was one of the first
frontline healthcare workers at Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital to
begin receiving their Covid-19 vaccinations. She is a nursing
technician at the hospital.

operations at Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital, celebrates after
receiving her first of two vaccinations for the novel coronavirus.
The hospital began administering the vaccine to its frontline
