NYC's employee vaccine mandate is now in effect. Here's what it could mean for first responders
CNN
With New York City's Covid-19 vaccine mandate in effect, some officials worry about what it could mean for first responders, groups of whom have strongly pushed back against the requirement.
Members of the fire and police departments and other city workers had until Friday evening to show proof they have received at least one dose of the Covid-19 vaccine or be placed on unpaid leave. The same mandate has been in effect already for city health care and education workers.
But in the days leading up to the deadline, both the fire and police departments scrambled in preparation for potential staff shortages, with one source telling CNN last week the Fire Department of New York was preparing for a 20% reduction in service starting Monday.
