Hope arrives at Boston Medical Center
in plain white box as vaccinations start

But the mood was far from heavy early Monday morning when a FedEx truck delivered the container of 1,950 doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus vaccine to Boston Medical Center.
The medical center was among 145 sites nationwide, including five in Massachusetts, that received the vaccine Monday, as part of a massive and expedited effort to stem the spread of a virus that has upended the lives of people across the world over the past year and killed 300,000 in the United States as of Monday.
