SAN DIEGO, Calif. (KGTV) - A new vaccination site opened in Vista, bringing the possibility of vaccinating 500 more people every day. Leaders say itâs small vaccination sites like this that are important for helping different people in the community get vaccinated, which is key for the Latino community.
San Diego County data shows just 15% of people vaccinated as of mid-February are Latino, despite the fact that Latinos make up 34% of the population and more than half of the positive cases.
