Fox News reports: Newsom issued an executive order last month requiring teachers to get vaccinated or take regular coronavirus tests along with a statewide mask order for students and teachers.
California mandates several vaccines for students, including for diphtheria, chickenpox, mumps, measles and rubella and hepatitis B.
California Health and Human Services Secretary Mark Ghalysaid in a statement the state is watching how the Los Angeles Unified School District’s vaccine mandate for students 12 and older rolls out and “understanding what it means for students and families alike, staff as well, and watching as other counties consider the same.”
The Oakland Unified School District has also voted for a mandate for children 12 and older, the Bee reported.
