Just curious if anyone has any info on this....

 

Are the Embassy employees getting vaccinated for COVID?  Is it per the procedures of the country they are in or are they following Dept of State guidelines or what? 
I would hope that vaccinating the employees would protect them and allow the backlog to get moving. 
 

Just a thought.

I would hope it's up to the individual employees to decide what is best for their health and not their employer.

I didnt mean it like that. I find it disheartening that is what the first conclusion someone would jump to. 
 

 What I am trying to say is I wonder if the USA has made the vaccine available to them as it is in the USA. Is the USA sending vaccines to these countries for their employees if they want it or are they at the mercy of the availability in that country?

You asked if they were being vaccinated which made it sound like you wanted to know if it was mandatory for employees. And considering some employers are trying to make it compulsory, I consider my reply to be valid.
