NBC 7’s Dana Griffin reports from SeaWorld where vaccine recipients were awarded with tickets to the theme park’s Halloween event.
SeaWorld San Diego is gearing up for a pop-up vaccination site and to incentivize locals to show up, participants will be given a pair of tickets for the park’s Howl-O-Scream event.
In partnership with the city and Sharp Healthcare, SeaWorld’s free pop-up vaccine site will be held Wednesday at its Education and Adventure Camp. Pfizer’s vaccination will be administered by Sharp Healthcare workers at the event.
COVID-19 Vaccines
Whether a participant is set to receive their first or second COVID-19 vaccine, all eligible San Diegans are welcomed at the site. Those who receive their first vaccine at SeaWorld’s pop-up will schedule their second dose at a location that is most convenient for the individual.
