MetroHealth Partners with Local Restaurants to Vaccinate Food Industry Workers

The MetroHealth System, along with Fahrenheit Cleveland and Flying Fig, is making it easy for food and beverage workers to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

Fahrenheit Cleveland is opening its doors on Monday, April 26 from 12 to 4 p.m. for any food and beverage worker to get the Pfizer vaccine for free. They’re located at 2417 Professor Avenue.

Flying Fig will have slots available on Monday, May 3 from 12 to 4 p.m. at 2523 Market Avenue. There will be 100 slots available at each location.

Vaccinations will be done on a walk-up basis for those 16 and older, so appointments are not needed. This vaccine does require two doses, so workers will be scheduled for the second dose after receiving the first.

MetroHealth is encouraging everyone to get vaccinated. The COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective and our best chance at returning to normal this summer.

Anyone who would like to schedule a vaccination at another time or location can call MetroHealth at 216-778-6100.
