San Francisco has become the first major U.S. city to require full vaccination for patrons and employees to enter restaurants, gyms, bars, and entertainment venues.

The order (pdf), announced by Mayor London Breed and Director of Health Dr. Grant Colfax on Aug. 12, takes effect on Aug. 20 for customers and Oct. 13 for staff, and prevents residents from submitting negative COVID-19 test results as a substitute to vaccination.
