Virginia Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin will reportedly allow public schools to force COVID-19 vaccines and masks on children when he assumes office.
Virginia Republican Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin will reportedly allow local mask and vaccine mandates to be implemented, including in K-12 public schools.
Glenn Youngkin, the Republican Governor-elect of Virginia, will be allowing localities in the state â including cities, counties, and public school systems â to implement mask and vaccine mandates, but says he will not impose a mandate at the state level. This differs from Republican governors in stronghold states like Florida, which have banned the practice of mandating vaccines outright.
