WASHINGTON — Workers at companies with more than 100 employees will be required to get a COVID-19 vaccine or submit to weekly testing under a new rule President Joe Biden unveiled Thursday — but is it feasible?
The rule applies to over 80 million workers in the private sector and falls under Biden’s six-part plan to combat the spread of the coronavirus.
“What more is there to wait for? What more do you need to see?” Biden said during a news conference announcing the plan. “We’ve made vaccinations free, safe and convenient. The vaccine is FDA approved. Over 200 million Americans have gotten at least one shot. We’ve been patient, but our patience is wearing thin.”
