“With all due respect,” said California Governor Gavin Newsom on Monday, “you don’t have a choice to go out and drink and drive. That’s the equivalent. You’re putting other people’s lives at risk. Your choice not to get vaccinated and to listen to these pundits…comes at a real societal cost. We need to be clear about that and we need to call that out.”
According to Newsom and the State Departments of Health and Human Services and Human Resources, California will soon require all state employees and health care workers — both public and private — to verify their vaccination status, either through a vaccine card or vaccine code, which is issued by the state. Officials stress the move is not a “mandate.”
For those who remain unvaccinated in hospitals, it will mean testing one to two times per week for those who are in areas where patient care and patient encounters.
