Federal appeals court temporarily blocks Covid-19 vaccine mandate for New York City educators that was set to go into effect early next week

The judge's ruling Friday means the mandate -- which required all New York City Department of Education employees to provide proof of at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccine by Monday -- may not go into effect at its planned deadline, unless the case is reviewed before then. The US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit has issued a notice putting the motion on the calendar for Wednesday, according to a spokesperson for the New York City Law Department.

Read MoreCurrently, more than 82% of Department of Education employees are vaccinated, Filson said,"and we continue to urge all employees to get their shot by September 27." The request for an injunction by the plaintiffs in the case was denied Thursday by US District Court Judge Brian Cogan. According to his order, the plaintiffs had, in part, argued the mandate was a violation of their constitutional rights.

WTF?

I hate allergy season. I take my Claritin but no one else does so my medicine quit working

Good. I hope the mandate is found unlawful.

Italians are fed up of greenpass Milan, 25 september 2021

I am not against vaccine but I just don’t trust it, if I have to loose my big paying job I will and my house and cars as well and god help us if the 65 percent of Americans that didn’t get vaccinated did the very same thing, I say goodbye to your economy as the cascade would be..

Why?

Stupid. Vaccinations have been required for years for various things in those weren’t necessarily threats to the children they were teaching for the teachers who are teaching that

Next mandate in Texas will be a little snip snip for highschool males reversed only when they're married.

Every person employed by school districts needs to be vaccinated!

But they'll force women to carry a baby to full term against her will. Not so pro-life after all.

Thank God, the Democrats refuse to stack the courts, valuing democracy like the repubs did when they were in power - oh wait ...

i guess when the kids start getting sick they blame biden

When is this fucked up country going to wake up?

... sage words..

Dina was waiting for her wedding about a month from now. However, Israeli occupation forces killed her fiancé, Osama Soboh, during a military raid of Burqin village in the occupied West Bank early today morning.

excellent-ridiculous mandate for illness with 97% mortality AND forced gene therapy leaky non sterile vax of partial cytotoxic crap? donotcomply

Disgusting and absurd!!!

yes !!

Name the appellate judges. The people should know the jurists with blood on their hands when students and teachers die from COVID.

This will eventually be overturned. Only a real piece of garbage would risk kids getting sick by not getting vaccinated

We haven't reached one million dead yet. And until we do, we will follow no mandates, regardless of their efficacy because we are basically, the dumbest nation on Earth. It was not always so. It is now.

Cuomo has been polluted in New York. I find it difficult for her to organize this city.

Another judge that wants to kill people. The hell is wrong with our judicial people

~ blocking vaccine mandates unblocks illness and death… to be clear.

Big win. Fuck mandates

🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️ the courts need to get their shit together! Every court is different

Are they crazy!!! Do they want unvaccinated young children to get sick and possibly DIEVaccines and masks are helping to keep children and their teachers safe.

Don't try to make people get vaccinated, but when the schools close and the parents have to stay off work to stay with their quarantined kids and lose money, don't complain. If a company requires you to get vaccinated and you don't want to, go find another job. And .....

I see dead 💀 people GetVaccinated

I’m vaccinated but what difference does it make to the students if the teacher is vaccinated or not? Vaccinated people can catch Covid and spread it the same as an unvaccinated person. The only one at more risk of anything serious by not being vaccinated is the teacher.

Judge Cogan is the conservative version of Pontius Pilate. Crucify both the children and educators in the name of Covid.

Why America why.

Teachers & all other school staff that doesn’t want the vax have the freedom to seek employment elsewhere! Schools cannot keep 3ft distance! NYC has class capped 34! Plenty of subs waiting to work! Plenty of newly grads seeking employment! Let’s go, get the vax now!

Maybe because it's unconstitutional?

Thanks to these a$$holes our vaccinated teenage daughter is now quarantined at home with Covid-19, exposed at school, along with our 11 year who cant get vaccinated because of nitwits like this.

Democratic anti vaxers are wanting this pandemic to continue. I doubt Biden will be too hard on them like he hammered Florida and Texas.

😂😂😂😂

Lol

Why block these mandates, what’s in for those that do? I’m just confused I guess but when the pandemic is far from over why would anyone stand in the way of getting it over and only a terrible memory? I’m sure I will get hate tweets but I’m just asking why they think this OK.

Is this true?

WTH?

82% are already vaccinated—-why are “we” managing by exception? Anyone that becomes a teacher should have children’s welfare as priority 1. This speaks volumes for those claiming to be a “teacher”.

It’s a fuckin joke, my 14year old is vaccinated so why tf can’t teachers be mandated, after everything NY has been through with this Covid
