California Includes Disneyland In Multiple 'Mass Vaccination' Sites

As cases surge, Gov. Gavin Newsom said five places such as MLB parks and entertainment sites will be used for dispensing vaccines. In Arizona, another hard-hit state, people lined up at a round-the-clock operation at the NFL stadium in Phoenix.

Health officials will begin distributing COVID-19 vaccines this week at Disneyland, the Orange County Board of Supervisors said Monday, making the resort the first 鈥渟uper鈥 vaccination site in the county. In a statement Monday night, county supervisors said Disneyland will be one of five large 鈥減oint-of-dispensing鈥 sites that collectively would be able to vaccinate thousands of residents each day. Arrangements for the other sites are being finalized, the statement said. (Ormseth, 1/11)

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) announced Monday that the state would be opening up multiple 鈥渕ass vaccination sites鈥 this week as cases continue to surge in the state. Newsom tweeted Monday that the new sites would include places such as Dodger Stadium, Padres stadium and Cal Expo. (Choi, 1/11)

Emily Alexander, a fourth-grade teacher in hard-hit Arizona, got vaccinated in a round-the-clock, drive-thru operation that opened Monday at the suburban Phoenix stadium where the NFL鈥檚 Arizona Cardinals play. She said she hopes it means she can be reunited in person with her students and colleagues before the end of the year. ... Similarly, in Britain, where a more contagious variant of the virus is raging out of control and deaths are soaring, seven large-scale vaccination sites opened Monday at such places as a big convention center in London, a racecourse in Surrey and a tennis and soccer complex in Manchester. (Pane, Nieberg and Watson, 1/11)
