SAN JOSE — With COVID-19 vaccination rates going from sluggish to improving among San Jose police officers — as some skepticism lingers about vaccine integrity — their union has outlined a plan to respond to the city’s new vaccine and testing mandate to head off potential staffing reductions resulting from noncompliance.

The San Jose Police Officers’ Association has proposed a plan to reconcile the police department’s approximately 1,150 sworn officers with a city mandate for vaccination or weekly testing for city employees. Most of the proposal outlines accommodation related to vaccination and testing, including provisions for medical or religious exemptions.
