The vote applies to both students and staff. The board also moved to put the topics of mask mandates and testing protocols for COVID-19 on the agenda for the board\u2019s upcoming meeting on November 23,\u201d The Daily Wire noted.Democratic Governor of California Gavin Newsom\u00a0announced\u00a0on October 1 that his state would be the first to force eligible students in private and public schools to be vaccinated against COVID-19 to be able to go to school in person. The mandate would go into effect once the vaccines have been approved fully, not merely granted emergency use authorization.\u00a0According to KFI News in Los Angeles, \u201cThe governor is directing the California Department of Public Health to add the COVID vaccine to other vaccinations required for in-person learning.\u201dThe Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
