View the full article The most magical place on Earth now has a COVID-19 vaccination site for its workforce. Disney World confirmed Wednesday that a limited number of employees signed up for appointments and received the Pfizer vaccine this week at its health services clinic near Epcot. The clinic is not open to the general public and is for Disney employees only. Disney did not say how many cast members have been vaccinated so far but added the site is hoping to get more shipments of the vaccine. Employees, working or furloughed, were notified by email about how to make appointments on a first-come, first-serve basis. Disney said it was approached by Osceola County to help with vaccines. The theme park giant is located in Osceola and Orange counties. “Our Health Services team administers other vaccines to Cast and has the expertise and infrastructure in place to aid in this effort so we gladly agreed,” Disney said in an email. Walt Disney World Resort President Jeff Vahle posted a picture from the site Wednesday on his Instagram account. “Sending a big thanks to our amazing Walt Disney World Health Services team as they provide Cast with another option to receive a COVID-19 vaccination,” his post said. “We are so pleased to help Central Florida in its continued fight to beat the virus! #GetTheShot.” It’s intended to be another option for Disney employees to get vaccinated even as other large-scale vaccine sites at the Orange County Convention Center and Valencia College are in operation.
