Princeton University has
become the latest college to require COVID-19 vaccinations for professors,
faculty and staff.
The employees must prove
they've been fully vaccinated by Aug. 1., which is ahead of the start of the fall
semester.
Campus employees can apply for waivers if they have a medical condition
or "sincerely-held religious belief" that prevents them from getting
vaccinated. If they do not get the shot, employees must continue wearing masks,
getting tested regularly and staying socially distant indoors.
The university was
one of the first to announce COVID-19 vaccine requirements for students back in
April.
