The program -- which is a partnership between the Mayor's Office of Public Safety, the Los Angeles Fire Department and CORE -- includes 10 rotating clinics deployed into neighborhoods most affected by COVID-19, with the highest distribution in Vermont Square, South Park and L.A. Flower Mart locations, Garcetti's office said.
Up to 1,500 doses are administered each day, and 90% of the doses have gone into the arms of people of color and 66% to people who identify as Hispanic, according to Garcetti's office.
“Los Angeles City, LAFD and CORE launched vaccine mobile units in January, understanding early on that reaching hard-hit and marginalized communities with vaccines requires providing direct access to these communities with small, nimble units,” said Ann Lee, CORE Co-founder and CEO. “These units are all the more critical to keeping these communities safe as we see demand for vaccines begin to drop.”
