Kate Brown will rescind an order that has required nearly 40,000 state employees to be fully vaccinated against COVID, explaining that “extraordinary emergency” orders are no longer necessary as “we learn to live with this virus.”

That means newly hired executive branch employees won’t need to get vaccinated, existing executive branch employees won’t need to stay up to date on their vaccinations with boosters and the tiny portion of these employees who were fired for non-compliance might be eligible to reapply for their old jobs once again.
