A day after the governors of Virginia and Maryland announced that some state employees must be vaccinated against coronavirus or tested weekly, a D.C. administration official said Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) intends to impose a similar requirement on D.C. government employees, after bringing nearly the entire city workforce back to their desks last month.
The administration is hammering out the policy with labor unions representing city workers, including the Washington Teachers Union, assistant city administrator Jay Melder said Friday during a discussion with D.C. Council members. They have been negotiating this week over how noncompliant employees might be disciplined, among other issues.
Fantastic news.

What kind of teacher would be non-complaint about either getting vaccinated OR tested weekly? Seems like a win/win for both sides.
It’s not just teachers, and I could see unvaccinated individuals skipping testing here and there. Not many but there does need to be some consequence if you want the policy to be followed.

No. They would be fired for cause.
Some of you parents are the worst. You are pushing me over to the teachers side just because I feel sorry they have to deal with such crap parents
