“Today, no excuses. SUNY and CUNY boards will require vaccinations for all in-person students coming back to school in the fall,” he said.
“If you must have a vaccine, get it now if you have to get it anyway. I also encourage private schools to do the same thing. Let’s make a global statement: you cannot go back to school in person in September unless you have a vaccine,” he added.
The mandate affects about 424,000 SUNY students and 274,000 CUNY students.

Currently, vaccines in the U.S. are being distributed under emergency authorization. Pfizer and BioNTech last week requested full approval from the FDA. It’s unclear when exactly approval would be granted.

The backstory: Yang
tweeted Monday night that he is “standing with the people of Israel who are coming under bombardment attacks, and condemn the Hamas terrorists.
