Apple to Require Employee Proof of COVID-19 Booster: Report

Citing internal emails, The Verge reported Saturday that Apple will require proof of COVID-19 booster shots from retail and corporate employees.

Starting Jan. 24, employees who have not been vaccinated or who have not submitted proof of vaccination will be required to take a negative COVID-19 test to enter an Apple workplace, the report said. The Verge said it was unclear whether the testing requirements would apply to both corporate and retail employees.

“Because of the diminished efficacy of the main series of COVID-19 vaccines and the emergence of highly contagious variants such as Omicron, booster shots are now part of timely COVID-19 vaccinations to prevent serious illness,” according to The Verge, the memo has been read.

Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

As the Omicron variant has increased infection rates across the country, many companies in the U.S. have been tightening their COVID-19 rules, mandating vaccinations and delaying return-to-work plans.

This week, Facebook’s parent company Meta Platforms made COVID-19 booster shots mandatory for all employees returning to the office. It also delayed the reopening of U.S. offices to March 28 from the previous January 31.

Tom signs Nolan’s next

This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.

Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.

Tom’s busy schedule

Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.

As Tom’s girlfriend and co-star Zendaya will be busy filming Spider-Man 4 in 2025, she’ll reprise her role of Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi spectacle Dune 3 only in 2026. Meanwhile, Tom is also likely to make an appearance as Spider-Man in Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday, which will go on floors in the spring of 2025.
