New York's Rockefeller Plaza transformed into an outdoor Walgreens clinic as five "Today" show anchors received vaccines on air.
Savannah Guthrie, Craig Melvin, Sheinelle Jones, Dylan Dreyer and Jenna Bush Hager all got their first shot of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine during the second hour of NBC's "Today" show today.
Walgreens pharmacists administered the shots in socially-distanced fashion outside the morning show's studio.

"You know I'm not a man of great emotion, but I'm that close to crying." Melvin said. "I'm so thankful for the science and the scientists, but I think we should also remember the 560,000 people in this country that we've lost in this past year to this dreadful virus."
The newly vaccinated anchors join "Today" weatherman Al Roker, 66, who has received both doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, and anchor Hoda Kotb, 56, who revealed on Instagram last month that she received her first dose of the vaccine.
