The company’s meeting center, which is near the two-sphere buildings seen below at Seattle’s corporate headquarters, is expected to see a high volume of people coming to receive the coronavirus vaccine.
Amazon has assigned an executive to work with the state’s vaccination team. Virginia Mason Franciscan Health is distributing the actual shots, and 2,000 people were expected to be vaccinated on the first day of the pop-up clinic.
Virginia Mason tweeted a note of thanks after the first pop-up vaccine day, writing, “Very appreciative of our partner, @Amazon, & volunteers for working together today to provide 2,000 people with their 1st dose of #COVID19 #vaccine. It takes a village.”
Amazon also hopes to get many of its workers vaccinated as soon as possible.
“Because we have big employee bases in these fulfillment centers, we can get a lot of vaccinations done very quickly,” Carney said.
