Blackstone Inc., the world’s largest alternative asset manager, is requiring its employees in the United States to get COVID-19 booster shots to work in the office, a spokesperson confirmed to Bloomberg.

Workers must get the booster shots “as soon as practically possible,” a spokeswoman said Wednesday. Office workers will need to be tested for the virus on-site three times a week, they added.
