All Baylor Scott & White Health employees, providers, volunteers, vendors, students and contract staff must receive the COVID-19 vaccine, unless granted an exemption.
In a press release, Baylor Scott & White said all employees, providers, volunteers, vendors, students and contract staff must receive both doses of either the Moderna or Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine or the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine, unless granted an exemption.

The hospital says the decision comes after a rise in cases of COVID-19 and the Delta variant, an overwhelming majority of these cases coming from the unvaccinated.
