Senior officials from the Biden Administration have reported that nearly all federal employees in the United States government are adhering to the COVID-19 vaccination requirements set by President Joe Biden. Specifically, about 90% of the workforce have been vaccinated with at least one approved COVID-19 vaccine, as verified, while 5% have submitted exemption requests which are either pending or approved.

“The Biden administration is on track to achieve a 95% compliance rate across the Federal government by the vaccination deadline, with employees having received their first dose or having pending or approved exceptions or extension requests,” stated an official. “Over 90% of these employees will have had at least one shot, and a large majority among them will be fully vaccinated.”

These statistics have surpassed the administration’s initial projections, as revealed by internal sources speaking to CNN. The majority of the 90% vaccinated workforce are confirmed to be fully immunized with two doses, while those seeking exemptions are expected to submit additional applications by day’s end.

On the subject of the looming deadline today, the vaccine mandate will officially become effective by day’s end. For individuals who are unvaccinated and have not applied for an exemption, federal departments will initiate an “education and counseling process” to emphasize the importance of vaccination, with further steps to be taken as deemed necessary.
