California Governor Gavin Newsom announced on Friday that the Golden State would be the first state in America to require COVID-19 vaccinations for K-12 students.
Newsom announced the vaccine mandate while speaking at a San Francisco-area school, saying all eligible students will be required to be vaccinated before attending class.
The current plan would require students older than 12-years-old to receive the
coronavirus vaccine in order to be able to attend class. This step would add the COVID-19 vaccine to the required list of childhood vaccinations required to
attend school.
The vaccine requirement would be enforced after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gives the approval for different age groups to receive the
shot while allowing religious and medical exemptions.
