PHILADELPHIA - Philadelphia is working to ensure thousands of patients who received their first dose of the coronavirus vaccine from the recently defunct Philly Fighting COVID mass vaccination clinic will get their crucial second dose on time.
The city severed its relationship with Philly Fighting COVID after accusations that the organization was trying to profit off running the site.
Philly Fighting COVID, lead by 22-year-old Drexel grad student Andrei Doroshin, was tasked with inoculating thousands of home healthcare workers who are unaffiliated with a hospital.City officials said they gave Doroshin the task because he and his friends had organized one of the community groups that set up COVID-19 testing sites throughout the city last.
