When Susan Maxwell-Trumble heard she’d be the first to get the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine at South Shore University Hospital, it was music to her ears. The 67-year-old Babylon, NY, resident, who worked in the music industry with such hard rock acts as Ozzy Osbourne, was recovering from hip replacement surgery when she volunteered to raise her arm for the one-shot inoculation. “This was an opportunity that fell into my lap and I was going to take it,” she said, adding that because she has preexisting conditions, the vaccine would give her more protection and freedom in her life.
