Air Force Airman 1st Class Emily Dixon, a Las Vegas, native and medical laboratory technician with the 88th Diagnostics and Therapeutics Squadron, 88th Air Base Wing, stationed at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, draws a dose of the COVID-19 vaccine at the state-led, federally-supported Ford Field Community Vaccination Center in Detroit, Michigan, April 15, 2021. Dixon is part of a group of Airmen assigned to 1st Detachment, 64th Air Expeditionary Group, that are assisting with vaccination efforts. Her primary duty is to ensure vaccines meet proper Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines. “My family is unable to leave the house because they are immunocompromised," said Dixon. "By doing this, I’ll be able to lessen the effects of COVID-19 and see my family again.” Northern Command, through Army North, remains committed to providing continued, flexible Department of Defense support to the Federal Emergency Management Agency as part of the whole-of-government response to COVID-19.
