With all of Pennsylvania's essential agriculture industry now eligible for COVID-19 vaccination, Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding visited with two vaccine providers in Adams County.The Adams County-WellSpan Health Joint Community COVID-19 Vaccination Site, which serves the community at large, and Keystone Health, whose mission is to serve the unique needs of Pennsylvania's migrant and seasonal farmworker population, are both accessible options for farmworkers in Pennsylvania's 20,000-acre fruit belt."For the past year, you've pushed up your sleeves and continued working to feed Pennsylvania and the world as the coronavirus pandemic surged across the commonwealth," said Redding. "Now it's time to roll up your sleeves for the COVID-19 vaccine. Choosing to protect your health with the vaccine not only protects you and your family, but it ensures the availability and accessibility of our food supply. It's critical to the resilience of our industry."
