Make UC campuses mass vaccination sites By Shounak Bagchi | Special to the Daily Cal Last Updated February 2, 2021 UC President Michael Drake promised the UC system would play a role in helping the country recover from the pandemic. Drake’s focus on students’ safety has been laudable, and his efforts to update the UC system on any pandemic news has been commendable. A few UC campuses have developed innovative ways to detect COVID-19. But to date, the UC system’s effort against the pandemic has been underwhelming. The website Successful Student, which produces rankings on the quality of universities, published a list of “The Best Universities Solving the Coronavirus Pandemic”; no UC campus made the list.
