Oregon State University joined the growing lists of schools requiring a COVID booster shot, as officials from the university announced Tuesday that students, faculty and staff will need to receive one.
"In the days ahead, we will provide you more information about this booster requirement, including means and dates of when compliance will be required as you become eligible for a booster," the letter stated. "We make this decision while monitoring increased COVID-19 cases across the nation due to the Omicron variant," Johnson and Feser wrote.
