DELAWARE- A huge step for the service industry, as the first round of restaurant workers got vaccinated over the weekend. At Dover International Speedway over 11,000 people were vaccinated from people 65 and older, 50 and older, and essential work groups. People in the restaurant industry have been working through the pandemic, dealing with limited capacities, and losing money due to the changes. Some are happy to finally get vaccinated while other places are still waiting for their invitation. A busy day at Stop N' Go Taco as the owner says she wasn't aware of this past weekends vaccines for restaurant workers. Bianey Cordoba-Sanchez, the Owner of Stop N' Go Taco said, "Yeah as a restaurant worker we haven't received the vaccine or we weren't aware of it or anything until you came in and let us know." She says her staff of five is more than willing to get the vaccine when their time comes. The state said, "Employees will receive direct communication from their employer regarding the vaccination opportunities that become available to them, whether it is through State-sponsored events or through their own vaccination events." Employers can contact vaccineplanning@delaware.gov if they want to get their employees vaccinated, while other places got the invite to the vaccine event and accepted. Dennis Kangayi, the Co-Owner of Breakfast Guru said, "That gives us a lot of hope, I think things are going to start opening back up and we're already seeing people starting to come out more so we definitely look forward to a good summer." He says his all of his workers couldn't sign up because appointments were filled very quickly. The Delaware Restaurant Association says, "The demand for dining out is high after being restricted to takeout, outdoor dining and limited indoor capacity - we think people are more than ready to start feeling normal, and enjoying restaurants again." As demand could continue to rise for dining options, these places have felt the impacts for long enough. Kangayi said, "We did suffer in terms of getting more help because a lot of people are afraid to work and then sales wise we didn't really get much of a decrease but we didn't see an increase neither." Bianey said, "We have less hours so I guess that will help us a lot tremendously open up more regular hours, open up more days." The DRA says that getting restaurant workers vaccinated will go a long way in making sure workplaces are even safer, and also boost confidence in consumers.
