José Andrés Receives First Dose of COVID-19 Vaccine

Chef José Andrés tweeted Thursday that he received his first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.

“I feel lucky to receive the first vaccine shot, lucky to be healthy after a year traveling with @WCKitchen…but many essential workers have not been so lucky. People, get the vaccine when it’s your turn…we must fight for access for all while we hope for a better tomorrow!,” the founder of World Central Kitchen tweeted.

Here’s a look at Andrés receiving the vaccine:

Now let’s make sure USA and other rich countries help poorer countries get the vaccine….longer table not higher walls! What must be good for some must be good for all…
