CMS required vaccination of staff at health care facilities participating in Medicare or Medicaid programs. The Court granted a stay of the OSHA rule pending merits review in the Sixth Circuit, but stayed an injunction of the CMS rule allowing it to go into effect.
But federal agencies are not the only actors setting vaccine policy. Effective January 15th, the D.C. government will require restaurants and other businesses to check customer vaccine status. Meanwhile Florida has taken a different approach, and has barred businesses from checking employee or customer vaccine status.
This panel will review the decisions and also consider the appropriate role for the various levels of government authority in setting vaccine policy, as well as competing interests of private businesses, employees, and consumers.
