The San Diego Unified School Board is expected to vote Tuesday on a proposal to require full COVID-19 vaccination for all staff and students age 16 and older by Dec. 20. Meanwhile about 81% of San Diego Unified employees have received at least one dose of a COVID vaccine, while 76% are fully vaccinated. AdvertisementIn its recommendation for a vaccine mandate, San Diego Unified cited testimony from seven UC San Diego experts who support a mandate. State health officials said last week they are considering a statewide COVID vaccine mandate for students age 12 and older. Several of the region’s most vocal anti-mask groups, including Let Them Breathe and ReOpen San Diego, had said they are organizing a protest outside San Diego Unified’s headquarters at 3 p.m. Tuesday.
