Posted on: August 12, 2021[ARCHIVED] Clinician Advisory: Vaccination and Masking Requirements
Clinician Advisory--COVID-19:
Governor Requires Vaccination for Healthcare Personnel
Local Health Officer Issues Directive for Masking in Public Indoor Spaces
Requested Action
- Be aware of Governor Inslee’s proclamation 21-14 issued on August 9, 2021. It requires credentialed healthcare providers and all other workers in health care settings to be fully vaccinated by October 18, 2021 (implying completion of a vaccine series by October 4). Note that the proclamation does not afford philosophical exemptions; it does afford accommodations for disability and sincerely held religious beliefs. See the proclamation for details and address your healthcare employer if you have questions.
