As the coronavirus delta variant spreads quickly throughout the U.S. more businesses are requiring proof of vaccination. Equinox and its SoulCycle spinning studios are both set to require proof of vaccination for customers and employees. According to the companies, this mandate will take effect in New York City in early September before covering all locations around the world. Equinox, which owns SoulCycle, will accept physical vaccine cards, photos of vaccine cards or state-issued digital vaccine passes as proof. The company also stated that they will “work with” customers and employees who have not taken the vaccine for medical or religious reasons. According to Equinox Group executive chairman and managing partner Harvey Spevak,
“We have always made the health and safety of our communities our top priority, and we will continue to do so in partnership with infectious disease experts as well as local governments. We have a responsibility to take bold action and respond to changing circumstances with urgency.”
