In another sign of reduced demand for COVID-19 vaccinations, Los Angeles County has announced it will close its four large- scale vaccine sites in coming weeks and transition them to smaller, community sites.
At the current pace of COVID-19 vaccinations, it will take until late August to reach the target goal of getting 80% of Los Angeles County residents aged 16 and older at least partially vaccinated, roughly one month later than previously thought, according to a new projection released today.
