California vegetable grower hosts mass vaccination clinic
D’Arrigo California was approved as a site for mass vaccinations for agriculture workers in Monterey County. D’Arrigo California, in partnership with the Grower-Shipper Association of Central California (GSA) and Clinica de Salud del Valle de Salinas (CSVS), hosted a one-day, drive-thru vaccination clinic for Monterey County residents ages 65 and over at risk of exposure while working in agriculture, per Monterey County’s most recent eligibility criteria.
The clinic took place at D’Arrigo California’s headquarters, located at 21777 Harris Road in Salinas, CA on Thursday, February 25, 2021. D’Arrigo California coordinated all the logistics at its headquarters in Salinas for the one-day clinic. The company invested in power outlets, portable restrooms and personnel to manage inbound and outbound vaccination traffic for the drive-thru clinic.
They were there for their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
At 66, Juan Jose Flores rode his bicycle from his home in East Salinas to the parking lot on Harris Road. The Taylor Farms employee of 16 years tested positive for COVID-19 in November. Luckily my symptoms weren’t serious, Flores said in Spanish. I’m just happy that I was finally able to get the vaccine.
Organized by Clinica de Salud del Valle de Salinas (CSVS) and the Grower-Shipper Association of Central California (GSA) and hosted by D’Arrigo California, more than 300 agricultural workers over the age of 65 were anticipated to get their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
