The governor of New Jersey ended a COVID-19 testing requirement for unvaccinated school workers and many other public employees on Aug. 15, according to his office.
Gov. Phil Murphy signed an executive order (pdf) that lifts the mandate requiring all school districts and contractors to make sure their workers have either received the COVID-19 vaccine or get regular testing, coming days after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) relaxed its COVID-19 guidance that differentiated unvaccinated and vaccinated individuals.
