TRENDING 👇 First Federal Agency Announces Vaccine Mandate

And so it begins… Veterans Affairs becomes the first federal agency to mandate the COVID vaccine, Fox News reports.

Health care personnel will be obligated to take the drug. Rueters says this impacts more than 100,000 health care workers.

Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough decided to make the COVID-19 vaccinations mandatory for all VA health care personnel. This includes physicians, dentists, nurses and others who work in patient-facing roles. The agency says this is a “necessary step” to keep the veterans it serves “safe.”

Employees have eight weeks to comply and must be fully vaccinated. McDonough said, “We’re mandating vaccines for Title 38 employees because it’s the best way to keep veterans safe, especially as the delta variant spreads across the country.”

“Whenever a veteran or a VA employee sets foot in a VA facility, they deserve to know that we have done everything in our power to protect them from COVID-19,” he continued. “With this mandate, we can once again make – and keep – that fundamental promise.”
