One day after Mike Brey was vaccinated against COVID-19, there is some welcome news for the Notre Dame student body. In an email to the campus community, the Rev. John Jenkins, Notre Dame’s president, announced that the university will have enough doses of the Pfizer vaccine for students at all levels of education. Faculty and staff also will be able to receive the vaccine if they haven’t already:

This undoubtedly is very good news for people who have experienced anything but a normal year of college. We have had too many stories this year ranging from infected students not receiving proper care to positive tests affect the various athletic programs in one form or another. By the end of the spring semester, everyone who wants to receive a COVID-19 vaccine will have done just that. It’s the best way of ensuring that the 2021-22 school year will look much different than what the university has experienced for the past 12 months.
