Three Massachusetts hospital systems have announced that they will require their employees to get vaccinated against COVID-19, potentially setting up a legal fight with workers who refuse to do so.
Mass General Brigham stated in a June 24 news release that “it will require its 80,000 employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 once the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) grants approval of one of the three vaccines,” referring to the vaccines made by Moderna, Pfizer, and Johnson & Johnson, which have been granted emergency use authorization from the FDA.
