New York City has a plan to phase out COVID-19 vaccine passports and mandates in the coming weeks, said Mayor Eric Adams on Wednesday.
"I can't wait to get it done I'm not going to get ahead of the science because I'm ready to get ahead of all of this and get back to a level of normalcy," Adams said in response to a question about whether his office will phase vaccine passports out.
The Democrat mayor did not provide a firm timetable on when vaccine passports would be rescinded.
Several days ago, Adams also signaled that he wanted to remove the passport system, which impacts restaurants, gyms, theaters, and similar venues, when he responded to a question about Brooklyn Nets superstar Kyrie Irving, who is not vaccinated for COVID-19 and as a result, cannot play in Brooklyn or even enter the Barclays Center.
Adams's comments came after several cities and municipalities have opted to remove their vaccine passports.
On Wednesday, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot announced that mask and vaccine requirements will be scrapped for certain locations starting Feb. 28.
After nearly two years of strict rules, several Democrat-run states including New Jersey, Delaware, Connecticut, and New York began easing vaccine and masking mandates, which prompted speculation that such decisions were fueled by an increase in public animus toward them.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
