An out-of-commission cruise ship has been repurposed as a Covid-19 vaccination centre for thousands of residents in the northern Swiss towns of Romanshorn, Arbon and Kreuzlingen.
The 89-year-old MS Thurgau, which usually holds 500 passengers, has earned the nickname “vaccine vaporetto” by some locals as it will sail from harbour to harbour on Europe’s third largest lake, Lake Constance, to deliver the jabs.
Two vaccination stations on board the ship have the capacity to vaccinate 24 people every hour - one every five minutes - or 168 people each day during a seven-hour shift.

ROMANSHORN, Switzerland, Feb 2 (Reuters) - An 89-year-old passenger ship, out of commission due to the coronavirus pandemic, was re-purposed on Tuesday as a COVID-19 vaccination centre for thousands of residents from cities on Lake Constance.
The 500-passenger MS Thurgau normally carries tourists and commuters between German and Swiss cities on Europe s third-largest lake. In coming weeks it will serve as a floating inoculation hub for northern Swiss towns Romanshorn, Arbon and Kreuzlingen.
Regional officials emphasized the ship s practicality since it can sail from harbor to harbor, earning it the nickname vaccine vaporetto with some locals.
