New York: New York City will require all municipal workers to get vaccinated against coronavirus or take a weekly test, Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Monday as the Delta variant fuels an uptick in cases in the metropolis. The order will go into effect from September 13 and will apply to more than 300,000 city personnel, including police officers, fire fighters and teachers.
