To enjoy San Francisco's many attractions and activities, proof of vaccination is required. The rules, which came into effect in August 20, will now require proof of vaccination to gain entry to indoor venues like bars, restaurants, and gyms.London Breed, San Francisco's mayor, presented the plan Thursday. San Francisco will require all people to be fully vaccinated, unlike New York City which requires that patrons present proof of only one vaccine jab. This mandate will be applicable to all who attend concerts, sporting games, and events that have more than 1000 people; and those who visit cafes, bars and gyms. These rules are not applicable to children under 12 years of age or people who aren't eligible for vaccinations.People can present their 'white logo' CDC card to enter indoor venues Lucky-photographer/Shutterstock"Vaccines are the only way to get out of this pandemic.
