Employees and visitors to Morgan Stanley will be barred from entering the bank's New York offices unless they are fully vaccinated against Covid-19 from next month, as the Wall Street firm prepares to get staff back to their desks by early September.

The banking company told staff and clients that they have less than three weeks to receive both coronavirus jabs before visiting its buildings in New York City and Westchester from 12 July - or keep working from home.
