Federal workers could face 5 years in prison if they lie about being vaccinated against COVID-19

The federal government will require federal employees to sign attestation forms declaring that they are vaccinated against COVID-19, officials told the Daily Beast. Knowingly lying on this kind of form is a violation of federal law, which can result in 5 years in prison and a ban on serving in the federal government.

"You have to sign an attestation form, and lying to the federal government, it's like perjury," an unnamed White House official told the Daily Beast.

Biden announced on August 3 that federal employee would be required to get vaccinated against COVID-19 or be subjected to weekly testing, a mask requirement, and be forbidden from traveling for work.
