Dr. Jerry Abraham is determined to ensure California s most vulnerable communities have access to the Covid-19 vaccine. Abraham has spent the last several months calling state officials to demand vaccine doses for Black and brown people in hard hit South Los Angeles, developing vaccine sites that welcomed walk-in patients, hosting mass vaccination events featuring entertainers and deploying mobile vaccination fleets to neighborhoods where residents don t have transportation. Abraham, director of vaccines at Kedren Community Health Center, said he is now vaccinating 5,000 people a day and filling a void in a community that might otherwise be neglected. We broke down every barrier that stood between people and their vaccines, Abraham told CNN. No appointment, that s OK. No internet or email, phone or transportation, can t walk, talk or see, can t speak English, undocumented, homeless none of those things were barriers.
