Officials in Washington are delaying enforcement of the school COVID-19 vaccine mandate after a federal judge struck down vaccination requirements for city workers.

Students aged 12 and older who don’t receive a COVID-19 vaccine won’t be barred from school until Jan. 3, 2023, the D.C. Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE) stated on Aug. 27.
