DETV News: Rising Covid Concerns as Variant Spreads

The mandates and recommendations seem to be ever-changing with near-daily updates from the CDC and other Government entities. With surges and hotspots happening around the country, DETV’s Matt Ford spoke to members of the community and a familiar face who’s leading the charge to get the messaging out on how important it is to protect the most vulnerable.

Just announced this week, Trinity health, which operates St. Francis hospital in Wilmington, is one of America’s first big hospital systems to require COVID-19 vaccinations for employees. Its mandate, which includes contractors and people conducting business in its health care facilities, goes into effect Sept. 21.

The U.S. Department of Veterans’ Affairs, which runs a hospital for veterans in Elsmere, also announced this week that all of its health care staff must be vaccinated within eight weeks.

Christiana Care, the state’s largest private employer, is the latest to announce that it will be requiring its employees to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
