Newsom Announces California will be the First State to Require All School Staff be Vaccinated Against Covid or Tested Weekly (VIDEO)
Embattled Governor Gavin Newsom on Wednesday announced California will be the first state to require ALL public school staff be fully vaccinated against Covid or submit a weekly test to state authorities.
“To give parents confidence that their children are safe as schools return to full, in-person learning, we are urging all school staff to get vaccinated. Vaccinations are how we will end this pandemic,” Newsom said.
“As a father, I look forward to the start of the school year and seeing all California kids back in the classroom,” he added.
The new policy goes into effect Thursday.
