The Good Old College Jab

More and more colleges are, as part of an initiative to open up in the fall of 2021 with full in-person classes, requiring proof of vaccination for COVID-19.  This is good news, and a no-brainer.  Even in Florida, where the no-brainer was apparently a real challenge and requiring vaccines for anything was banned for petty political reasons, there are colleges that seem to be going ahead with plans for requiring their students and staff to be vaccinated.

"Of course these types of mandates aren't new, and their legality has been challenged and upheld for nearly a century."  The vast majority of colleges have required proof of vaccination for a long time, just like public elementary and secondary schools.  

So attending college in the new world will require proof of vaccination, updated as often as it turns out it needs to be.  No one's safe until everyone's safe.
