California’s Disneyland park to become COVID vaccination site
    2021-01-15  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

CALIFORNIA’S Disneyland theme park is set to become a massive COVID-19 vaccination site this week, county officials announced Monday.

The “happiest place on earth” is one of several large distribution sites opening up in the state as cases soar and hospitals near capacity.

The most populous U.S. state has lagged behind in its vaccination rate, doling out around a third of its doses so far.

The state reported just under 40,000 new cases on Monday and 264 deaths.

California ranks 42nd out of 50 states in its vaccination rate per 100,000 residents, according to Centers for Disease Control data.

The Disneyland resort in Orange County will become the region’s first “super” distribution site, Orange County Supervisor Andrew Do said Monday. It will have the capacity to vaccinate thousands of people daily.

The park has been closed to visitors since mid-March — unlike its sister resort, Walt Disney World in Florida, which has been open to reduced numbers of guests since July.
