LOS ANGELES (CNS) - In an effort to encourage Los Angeles Latino residents to get inoculated, Mayor Eric Garcetti today launched a bilingual vaccination campaign featuring Angelica Maria, Danny Trejo, Pepe Aguilar, Angela Aguilar and Leonardo Aguilar.
The campaign comes as Latino residents in Los Angeles County continue to have one of the lowest vaccination rates. According to L.A. County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer last Thursday, only 40% of eligible Latinos have been vaccinated. However, the percentage of Latino residents being vaccinated has improved significantly since February, with a 593% rise in vaccination rates among Latino residents aged 16 and up.
