Governor Tom Wolf says that he feels great after getting the first shot of the Moderna vaccine on Monday, and he says he was happy to get it.

Larry and Kevin of the Newsradio KDKA morning show asked the governor about the Johnson & Johnson vaccine temporarily being pulled off the shelves and whether that was a big setback in the effort to get everyone in the state vaccinated.

"I look at it just the reverse", Wolf says. "I mean, to me, what, there were six cases and almost seven-million vaccines that were administered, and that triggered a review by the CDC and the FDA. So personally, I took it, it boosted my confidence".

More than three-million Pennsylvanians are now fully vaccinated.
