As resistance to President Biden's booster-shot push grows, it appears the administration is - just as we expected - upping the pressure on federal workers who haven't yet been vaccinated - while asking private businesses to do the same. According to CNN, the Biden Admin will no longer allow workers to get tested weekly instead of taking the vaccine. Instead, he's signing an executive order Thursday requiring all workers to get the vaccine or face indefinite suspension.
What's more, Biden's order will extend to employees of government contractors. Per CNN, the same standard will be extended to employees of contractors who do business with the federal government. The Department of Defense, the Department of Veterans Affairs, Indian Health Service and National Institute of Health will also complete their previously announced vaccination requirements, which the White House believes has covered 2.5MM people.
