As the United States rolls out COVID-19 vaccines, companies in the food, beverage and agribusiness sectors are keeping a close watch on when their workers will be able to receive them.
A challenge for many people in these essential industries is that states have adopted their own processes for administering the vaccines and sometimes created different definitions of critical workers, leading to a disjointed framework across the country, and potentially sowing confusion among the millions of individuals working in these jobs.
Food Dive is tracking the status of each state’s plan to vaccinate workers in the food manufacturing and agriculture industries, including in which priority group they may be placed. This tracker will be updated as states make changes to their vaccination schedule or come out with more detailed information.
