The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department on Friday vaccinated about 300 of its employees at a mobile vaccination clinic at the Pomona Fairplex, the department said.
The clinic was the first in a series that will be offered to Sheriff’s Department employees, including sworn, professional and reserves staff, over the next few weeks, officials said.
Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva appeared at the site Friday and urged employees to get vaccinated, saying that he had done so with no ill effects.
“I took two doses of the Moderna vaccine, which is being offered here today, and I feel great,” Villanueva said at a news conference.
