The city is contacting restaurants and markets directly to sign-up employees and pulling workers from its VaxLB system. The city is making progress on getting all food workers vaccinated as it moves closer to fully and safely reopening  this important part of the economy. 

“Our food economy is critical to our success, and we are going to make sure it’s safe and workers are vaccinated,” said Mayor Garcia.
