Vaccine mandates are here.

As they make plans to return to the office, companies are adopting a new regulation: COVID-19 vaccine mandates.

 

City governments and health systems implemented such policies requiring a vaccine or negative COVID test first, and tech companies like Google and Facebook are following suit this week. In Baltimore, Comptroller Bill Henry is asking for the City to make such a move.
