San Joaquin County expects to start offering COVID-19 vaccines to those aged 16 to 64 with pre-existing conditions, homeless residents and incarcerated individuals starting Monday, March 15.
The recent announcement by the governor s office that 40% of upcoming vaccine allocations in the state will be distributed among the most vulnerable residents that have been impacted by COVID-19, is welcome relief to the cherry industry, where vaccinating staff is an urgent need.
The cherry industry has not only worked through a year of COVID-19 protocols, but will be packing and exporting its second harvest during the pandemic.
“I think everybody is trying to get some clarity” after the state’s transition for Blue Cross Blue Shield to manage vaccination distribution said Chris Zanobini, executive director of the California Cherry Export Association. “It’s a much bigger process.”
