Sununu signs bill prohibiting vaccination requirements in some public spaces Modified: 7/27/2021 10:00:40 PM Related stories . CONCORD — With less than 50% of the country fully vaccinated, California and New York City announced Monday that all public workers will be required to get a COVID-19 vaccination or face weekly COVID-19 tests. New Hampshire will not be joining them, at least not totally. On Friday, Gov. Chris Sununu signed into law the so-called “immunization freedom” bill that prohibits the state from denying people access to public spaces, public services and public benefits if they are not immunized. But HB 220 does allow the state and counties to require immunizations for anyone at the state hospital and county nursing homes, and any other medical facility they own. Schools and child care providers can still require vaccinations, as can private businesses for workers who may pose a threat to others, as long as employers offer exemptions or accommodations for religious beliefs and disabilities.
