Covid Vaccine
Update: June 10, 2021 update: 100% of our at-sea crew is fully vaccinated.
Update: May 13, 2021 update: 100% of our at-sea crew is at least partially vaccinated; 84.1% fully vaccinated.
Update: May 7, 2021 update: 99% of our at-sea crew is at least partially vaccinated; 72.4% fully vaccinated.
As of April 30, 2021, 98% of Fishermen’s Finest at-sea crew are at least partially vaccinated for Covid-19; 63% are fully vaccinated. We could not have done this without the support of Discovery Health MD and of course our FFinest Crew.
Our first Covid Protocol went into place on March 3, 2020 and became ever more stringent as we moved forward and learned how the pandemic was progressing. A hiring freeze until June 2020 followed by hotel quarantine for our crew and anti-body testing (all we had at the time). Later, Discovery Health MD was able to provide PCR testing at SeaTac, Tukwila, Pier 90, etc.
Then in August, thanks to Discovery Health MD we added the Abbott ID NOW testing machines aboard the vessels and at our pandemic operations office (Mukilteo) - a new level of security in place. Covid testing at the beginning and end of hotel quarantine for all crew; surveillance testing aboard the vessels at sea.
Earlier this year Discovery Health MD was able to facilitate Covid vaccinations at Pier 90 and in Dutch Harbor; once that was in place we aggressively moved to get all our crew vaccinated. Hotel quarantines are still in place for the partially vaccinated crew but today is a milestone. 98% partially vaccinated; 63% fully.
Good job Team Fishermen’s Finest - Discovery Health MD.
