Tourists came straight from the airport to join New Yorkers getting vaccinated in the grandeur of Grand Central station Wednesday as a pilot program designed to convince reluctant people to get immunized got underway.
Recipients began lining up in the large hall of the historic terminal in the heart of Manhattan shortly after 7:00 am (1100 GMT) to get the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
