Farm workers around Washington state are worried they are being put at risk for the coronavirus.

Thousands of workers are already pruning grapevines and fruit trees and getting ready to cut asparagus, while thousands more will soon be arriving to tend to other crops.

And if they get sick, food production could grind to a halt.

Two unions, the United Farm Workers of America and Familias Unidas Por La Justicia AFL-CIO, believe the state hasn’t done enough to protect farms from becoming the next hot spot for the coronavirus and the disease it causes, COVID-19.

I see bus loads of workers being transported to work, and nobody has masks on even though the bus is full to capacity. They also live in dorm like housing where the virus can spread easily.
