Vaccine Rate Higher For UNC Students Than Staff

UNC employees will have to declare their vaccination status and those unvaccinated will have to submit to testing if a new resolution from UNC-Chapel Hill Faculty Executive Committee is enforced. Addressing chancellors of the UNC System, President Peter Hans posted, “Chancellors should exercise their administrative authority over personnel at their institutions by putting a ‘get vaccinated or get tested regularly’ measure in place for their faculty and staff. I think it’s reasonable, both for public health and for leadership by example, to ask our faculty and staff to comply with the same protective measures we are asking of our students.”
