(Worthy News) – The Office of Personnel Management is giving federal workers until Nov. 9 to comply with President Biden’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate or face consequences that could include firing.

Enforcement proceedings can begin the day of the deadline, and OPM urged workers not to wait until the last minute to get inoculations. [ Source: Just the News (Read More…) ]
