The New York Police Department is preparing for a "Potential mass exodus" over far-left Mayor Bill de Blasio's Chinese coronavirus vaccine mandate, the New York Post reported on Thursday.
According to the report, police officials issued several memos on Thursday for police officers who wish to retire rather than get jabbed and reserved an auditorium on Friday "For the NYC Police Pension Fund to process retirement paperwork with at least 20 years on the job." Anyone who has worked less than 20 years and wishes to resign is being asked to come to the auditorium on Saturday.
Police officers must show proof they have received at least one shot by 5 p.m. on Friday - employees who do not comply will be put on unpaid leave beginning Monday.
As of Thursday, at least 25 percent of NYPD employees remained unvaccinated.
The head of the Detective Endowment's Association told Post that 9,000 to 10,000 NYPD members are eligible to retire or "Vest out," meaning they could opt for a "Delayed and lesser retirement package," the report states.
President of the Police Benevolent Association Pat Lynch said de Blasio's mandate "Sets the city up for a real crisis," the Associated Press reported.
On Wednesday, a Staten Island judge rejected the police union's request for a temporary restraining order on the mandate.
