“While the specifics are still being finalized, the source said, federal workers would be required to attest to their vaccination status or submit to regular testing. The source said the proposal will be roughly similar to what is being implemented in New York City. Additional requirements for the unvaccinated could be added as agencies push to vaccinate their employees.
Biden will not impose the requirement on the US military, despite his authority to do so, for the time being. He is, however, likely to outline how the Department of Defense may seek to approach the issue going forward, the source said.”
Covid-19 is real, like real real and the Biden Administration is taking the threat of the delta variant very seriously. The Federal employees and contractor vaccine mandate is a step in the right direction and could encourage more people to get the vaccine in an effort to stop the Delta variant. Tragically, there is too much disinformation coming from various news sources that has caused panic in people about the efficacy and safety of vaccines. Those news sources are directly responsible for people dying of Covid-19.
