It’s been a tough year for health care workers, so when Boston Medical Center receives the first shipment of the coronavirus vaccine, it will provide a rare moment of hilarious corticosteroids.
B.M.C. No staff celebrated the delivery by donating masks, facial hair and medical gowns by dancing on the sidewalk called Lizo’s “Good Like Hell”, which became a sleeper hit in the days of the Great Epidemic.
A clip of the dancing staff was shared on Twitter by Center BMC President Kate Walsh New ticket ok account.
“Why do I like my job? [at Boston Medical Center]”Walsh wrote.

Boston Medical Center received 1,950 doses of the Pfizer-Bioentech vaccine on Monday and plans to begin giving shots to employees on Wednesday. One thousand employees are set to be shot by the end of the week, and hospitals in other areas expect shipments to arrive on Tuesday.
Frontline health care workers treating COVID-19 directly will be the top priority for Massachusetts to be shot during Phase 1 of the rollout. Other health care workers may be vaccinated later in Phase 1.
