Majority say no to tests, vaccine

A majority of small businesses are not requiring their employees to get tested for the coronavirus or get any vaccines, though the health care and hospitality industries are ahead of the curve on this requirement, according to a report released this week by the U.S. Census Bureau.

The bureau’s most recent Small Business Pulse Survey showed 70% of the small businesses surveyed said “no” when asked if they had required employees to test negative for the coronavirus before coming to work in the past week.
