Department of Veterans Affairs

The Department of Veterans Affairs said its frontline health workers must get vaccinated by mid-September or they'll lose their jobs.

The secretary was in Tampa visiting with health workers and veterans. He says he has a duty to protect VA patients from the powerful delta variant. That's why he's mandating staff get vaccinated against COVID-19.

High levels of community spread and low vaccination rates are putting many nursing homes in Florida at risk for COVID-19 outbreaks. Some facilities are taking extra precautions.

For the second straight year, Memorial Day commemorations will be scaled back at cemeteries managed by the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Congress has told the Department of Veterans Affairs to offer COVID-19 vaccines to some 24 million people who don't usually get their health care through the VA.

If approved by a federal court, the legal settlement will force the Army to review the discharges of recent veterans with mental health issues.

Medical facilities run by the Department of Veterans Affairs are reopening at a slower pace than many civilian health systems. But the VA has recently started to expand in-person care.

Local VA facilities could expand in-person services to offer more routine care if downward trends in coronavirus cases continue, says Secretary Wilkie, but they have to be cautious to protect vulnerable patients.
