From AP News. Full story here. Yellow highlights my own.
LAS VEGAS (AP) — The governing board of the school district serving metro Las Vegas has voted to generally require that teachers and other employees be vaccinated for COVID-19.
The 5-1 vote by the Board of Trustees of the Clark County School District to impose the mandate came early Thursday after a seven-hour meeting. District Superintendent Jesus Jara will next draw up a plan to implement the mandate.
And:
“We are experiencing a substantial surge in COVID-19 infections in our entire community. COVID-19 knows no geographical limitations, “ Jara said. ”The district has an obligation to protect the health of our children, our staff and the public that we serve, from this virus.”
