In a livestreamed interview with an online health information website, Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said he doesn’t foresee the government mandating the COVID-19 vaccine.

People have a right to refuse a vaccine, Fauci added: “You cannot force someone to take a vaccine." 

However, just because he doesn’t think the government will mandate it, that doesn’t employers won’t implement their own mandates as a condition of coming back to work or becoming employed with them, Fauci suggested.

Examples of workers this might apply to include those who work in the health care fields or schools.
