Following New York City's lead, New Orleans and San Francisco will impose such rules at many businesses starting next week, while Los Angeles is looking into the idea.
On Friday, the Chicago school system, the nation's third-largest district, with more than 360,000 students, announced it will require all its teachers and other employees to be fully vaccinated by mid-October unless they qualify for a medical or religious exemption. Louisiana's Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards sounded the alarm about the risks of overloaded facilities with too few staff to handle the crush of people with the coronavirus illness on top of the car crash victims, heart attack patients and others.
Only 38% of Louisiana's population is fully vaccinated. But the numbers of people seeking their first shot have increased dramatically over the past month, with nearly 46% of Louisiana's residents starting the vaccine series. At least 18 states led by Republican governors or legislatures prohibit the creation of so-called vaccine passports or ban public entities from demanding proof of vaccination. Several of those -- including Alabama, Florida, Iowa, Montana, North Dakota and Texas -- also bar most businesses from denying service to those who aren't vaccinated.
The city is also demanding that all of its municipal workers -- including teachers and police officers -- get vaccinated by mid-September or face weekly testing.
Good cause it’s a cesspool right now.
Remember when this was labeled a conspiracy theory?
It's obvious now they're looking for scapegoats because the vaccine doesn't work nearly as well as the experts told us
There is a better way to go about health care.
Wow a different type of racism. Vaxxed or not vaxxed. Guess the non vaxxed sit at the back of the bus. Separate washrooms next
Nope
