In times when everyone seems to be choosing sides, the recent COVID vaccination clinic at the Senior Center should receive unanimous celebration within the community.

From the registration process through the second shot, it was handled efficiently and cheerfully. The police, firefighters and other staff worked tirelessly to serve everyone, and I don’t think a single person who received his or her vaccination shots there would argue that.

Regardless of one’s political beliefs, I hope we can all feel grateful to those who organized this clinic, and those who served at the Senior Center. Thanks to all.

— Tom and Penny O’Hare, Hopkinton
