vaccination mandate
Compulsory shot policy
A vaccination mandate is a rule requiring people to receive a vaccine as a condition of participation—in employment, schooling, military service, or public activities.
Such mandates became politically charged during the COVID-19 pandemic: The company's vaccination mandate sparked employee protests.
Opponents frame them as government overreach; proponents cite public health necessity.
