Jan 25, 2021 9:32am Once a broad swath of the population has been vaccinated, which could take many months, testing volume will likely drop off sharply. However ongoing outbreaks may require increased testing, particularly in poorer communities of color, which have been hit hardest by the pandemic. (Getty Images) California Gov. Gavin Newsom, under growing pressure to jump-start a faltering COVID-19 vaccine rollout, jetted to Los Angeles on Jan. 15 to unveil a massive new vaccination site at Dodger Stadium that is expected eventually to inoculate 12,000 people a day. The city-run venue had been the biggest COVID-19 testing site in the U.S., administering over 1 million tests in its nearly eight months of operation—and over 10,000 a day during the recent surge. Its redeployment to the cause of vaccination, Newsom declared, provides “an extraordinary world-class site for a world-class logistics operation.”
