City Of San Jose Requires Proof Of Vaccination At City-Owned Facilities

On Aug. 24, San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo’s proposal for a vaccine requirement for attendees and staff for events of 50 or more people at city-owned facilities was unanimously approved by the San Jose City Council. Mayor Liccardo released the following statement:

“This evening, the City Council unanimously approved my proposal requiring all attendees and staff to provide proof of vaccination before entering large events in city-owned facilities. This action will reduce the risk of “super-spreader” events in our community that can dramatically increase infections and hospitalizations. Thank you to my council colleagues who continue to show their commitment to protecting our residents’ health and safety.  We must listen to the science and the data, and right now, the data clearly tells us that vaccination provides our safest path to the other side of this pandemic.”
