00:00.150 --> 00:03.603
- My name is Micah Yates
and I'm a Hospital Corpsman.

00:03.603 --> 00:05.790
- [Interviewer] I'm sorry, HM3?

00:05.790 --> 00:06.853
- No, just HN.

00:06.853 --> 00:07.686
- [Interviewer] Okay.

00:07.686 --> 00:08.519
- HN Yates.

00:08.519 --> 00:11.080
- [Interviewer] Okay, and
can you spell your first

00:11.080 --> 00:11.913
and last name?

00:11.913 --> 00:15.193
- Yup, M-I-C-A-H Y-A-T-E-S.

00:16.340 --> 00:17.330
- [Interviewer] How does it feel to be

00:17.330 --> 00:20.270
among the first to be
receiving the COVID vaccine?

00:20.270 --> 00:21.103
- Oh, I feel good.

00:21.103 --> 00:23.190
I mean, it's a very proud feeling,

00:23.190 --> 00:24.392
being able to stay in the fight.

00:24.392 --> 00:26.500
You know, one thing you don't want

00:26.500 --> 00:30.220
is to be compromised and you
can no longer do your job.

00:30.220 --> 00:32.410
So it feels good to be
able to get vaccinated

00:32.410 --> 00:34.023
and continue on.
