New York City public school teachers and staff will be required to be vaccinated, Mayor Bill de Blasio announced Monday. The mandate from the city's public health department came the same day the Food and Drug Administration granted full approval for the Pfizer vaccine.
In July, de Blasio made it mandatory for all city workers to get the vaccine or receive regular COVID-19 testing. But now, for public school staff, testing won't be an acceptable alternative to the vaccine, CBS New York reports. All New York City public school staff members, including teachers, principals, food workers and custodians, will need to have at least one dose by September 27, de Blasio said.More Related News
