NEWARK, N.J. (CBSNewYork) — A new COVID vaccination site is ready in New Jersey.
Essex County announced Wednesday that the Donald M. Payne School of Technology in Newark will be the fifth site where residents can get their vaccinations.
“Opening up another vaccination site here in the city of Newark is imperative. Many people have to get as much access as they can. Fifty percent of our people do not drive in the city of Newark, so as many sites as we can open up, the better it is for all of us,” Mayor Ras Baraka said.
