Several school bus routes in Connecticut were delayed Monday morning as drivers did not show up to work in response to the state’s COVID-19 vaccine mandates for school employees, but the governor said the worst case scenario has been avoided.
“I think I can speak on behalf of 500,000 kids and their parents, thankfully the overwhelming majority of the school bus drivers showed up let kids get back to school for in-person learning,” Gov. Ned Lamont said on Monday after an event on a new car safety law.
