ORLANDO, Fla. - The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs announced on Monday that VA health care personnel will be required to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
The agency said VA employees will have eight weeks to be fully vaccinated from the virus amid concern over a rise in novel coronavirus cases and the highly transmissible delta variant. 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, Department of Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough said in a press release. Whenever a Veteran or VA employee sets foot in a VA facility, they deserve to know that we have done everything
