On Thursday, Mark Zuckerberg told more than 50,000 of his Facebook employees during a company all-hands meeting that they will not be obligated to vaccinate against COVID-19 in order to return to their offices from home, according to a report citing a knowledgeable source who requested anonymity.
The Facebook CEO also insisted that the coronavirus vaccine will be a positive development, and urged workers to follow anti-COVID measures, the report said.
Despite this, he expressed confidence in the vaccines. He also said that some employees have already started to return to offices abroad in places w/ low COVID numbers.
