Last week the Supreme Court shut down the Biden administration's vaccine mandate for large employers. Now, Starbucks has become one of the first major retailers to go back on a vaccine plan since the ruling. In a memo sent to employees on Tuesday, Starbucks said they will no longer require employees to be vaccinated or submit to weekly coronavirus testing after only two weeks earlier creating the mandate with a set deadline of February 9th.
