Connecticut law does not require health care workers in hospitals to receive COVID-19 vaccines, although it is now part of the facilities’ internal infection control and health frameworks, according to the Connecticut Hospital Association.
In 2021, the CHA adopted a statewide policy that endorsed mandatory vaccination for hospital health care workers. This was a hospital policy, not a state mandate.
