New York City Keeping Public Worker COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate in Place After Ruling

 New York City is keeping its COVID-19 vaccine mandate for public workers in place after a judge ruled it was unconstitutional

• The city is also appealing the ruling, which ordered the reinstatement of workers who sued the city after they were terminated.
• In a notice of appeal, filed on Oct. 25 with the New York Supreme Court's Appellate Division, city lawyers suggested Supreme Court Justice Ralph Porzio erred in his ruling by pointing out that "multiple courts" have held that the vaccine mandate is "entirely lawful and rational."

Other Mandates

• New York City’s Board of Health voted Tuesday to rescind the private employee and school activity mandates.
• The unanimous votes mean the mandates will expire on Nov. 1, 2021.
• Board members said they voted the way they did in part because of how many New Yorkers have been vaccinated.
