[ARCHIVED] NUWC Employees Get COVID-19 Vaccinations

NAVSEA

More than 1,200 Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport employees were vaccinated against the coronavirus through short-notice opportunities at the Naval Health Clinic New England (NHCNE) located on Naval Station Newport. Over the past few months, government, military and contractor employees were given the opportunity to receive Moderna or Pfizer vaccine doses that were in danger of being discarded because they were already opened and intended for someone who canceled an appointment.

Cmdr. Christopher Sutherland, homeport clinic manager; and Janet Igo, administrative/technical specialist and telework program coordinator, Division Newport’s Human Resources Division.
