label: Description
content: When the pandemic began, Katrina Randall was working as a surgical nurse in York County, Maine. A tent was set up at the hospital where she worked and she screened patients before they could be admitted to the ER. She was ultimately deployed to conduct nasal testing of hospital employees (doctors, nurses, cafeteria workers, housekeeping, etc). Constant outbreaks occurred until Fall of 2021.
label: Description
content: Once the outbreaks had been contained, she went to work for York County Emergency Management in a vaccine clinic which was set up in old Marshall’s department store that had been vacant for several years. On a typical day, the clinic provided 300+ vaccines, beginning at 10:30am until 6pm. Randall had been a home nurse and she went on home visits to people who needed vaccines but were unable to leave their homes. For each vaccine, she donned gloves and then performed the vaccination. She kept the following items on hand to assist with this process: the vaccine and syringes, paperwork, an EPIpen in the event a person had an allergic reaction, band aids, and alcohol wipes.
label: Description
content: Randall created a photo album which featured her co-workers at the vaccine clinic. She also collected material which instructed her in how she should treat patients and schedule her work. In 2022, she herself received lab results indicating that she had contracted COVID. She was prescribed Paxlovid, the standard treatment for COVID. She maintained these objects, seeing the pandemic as an extraordinary event.
