A Georgia restaurant will refuse service for unvaccinated people after breakthrough COVID infections
An Atlanta, Georgia restaurant owner decided only to serve fully vaccinated customers.
The restaurant announced the rule on Instagram earlier this week, showing a "No Vax, No Service" sign that aims to reduce the spread of the virus inside the establishment.
Armando Celentano, a co-owner of Argosy Restaurant and Bar told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution the decision came after he and three of his employees tested positive for the virus even though they are all fully vaccinated, marking an instance of breakthrough infections.
"It is a question of quality of life and safety for my staff and guests," Celentano told the outlet. "It's a privately owned, small business and I have to do what I think is right to protect the people who rely on me to make a living."
Approximately 38% of people in Georgia are fully vaccinated, according to data from the New York Times. As the more contagious Delta variant spreads throughout the US, vaccinated people are not 100% immune and could still become infected with COVID-19.

Al's Breakfast in Minneapolis has reopened to dine-in service for the first time since the pandemic shut down operations at the restaurant in March of last year.
The Dinkytown restaurant officially reopened on Friday after a soft opening earlier this week, according to their Facebook page.
"We're too small to share space with unvaccinated people. Get the shot!" the business's latest post reads.
The restaurant is a campus go-to and has operated under its current name since the 1960s.
(Dinkytown is the area around the University of Minnesota's Minneapolis campus, in other words, full of Bolsheviks and rootless cosmopolitans
