Drug store chain CVS (HQ) will require its nurses, pharmacists and other employees who interact with patients to be vaccinated against Covid-19, according to Yahoo News.

The move follows the FDA’s full authorization of the Pfizer vaccine in the U.S. CVS will also require its corporate workers to get fully vaccinated by the end of October. Employees at all worksites are also required to wear masks or face coverings regardless of their vaccination status.

Pharmacists at CVS retail stores have until Nov. 30 to get fully vaccinated.
