At least three more school districts in California are going to require students aged 12 and older to get vaccinated against COVID-19 to attend school, following the state’s largest school district—Los Angeles Unified School District—announcing the mandate two weeks ago.

On Wednesday night, school boards of the Oakland Unified School District, the Piedmont Unified School District, and the Hayward Unified School District voted to require COVID-19 vaccines for students.
