More than 200 COVID-19 vaccines were administered at the Port of Los Angeles on Friday to Majestic Princess crew members.
The 221 vaccines were given by Ambulnz in partnership with The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, Ports America and Metro Cruise Services.
“We’re glad to be providing the World Cruise Center as a location where our partners can vaccinate staff in preparation for the return of cruising to Southern California,” said port Executive Director Gene Seroka. “This is important to the hundreds of thousands of people who enjoy cruises embarking from Los Angeles annually as well as to our local economy and job market. Each time a cruise ship calls in Los Angeles, it generates more than $1 million to local restaurants, hotels and shops.”
