- 17 health professionals, including doctors and nurses, claimed that their rights were violated with a vaccine mandate that disallowed religious exemptions.
- The judge gave New York state until Sept. 22 to respond to the lawsuit in federal court in Utica.
- No formal response from the state
- Today Judge David Hurd indicated that he would issue a decision on or before by October 12.


I don't know boyos. I personally know of people who quit/retired (stupidly) because of this mandate. Honestly, those people should've not signed anything and gotten fired instead. This way they could have at least benefitted from the unemployment. I caved in due to not being allowed to finish my education/see patients/conduct clinical research. Anyways, seems like a lot were trigger happy and those still waiting it out could possibly reap the benefits of being a true blood....unless the judge gives it a "go" on the mandate anyways. What do y'all have to say?

New York will lose for not allowing a religious exception.

The whole point was to try and scare people into taking the vaxx, make them think they didn’t have a choice. The state knew they would lose in court, but wanted to scare people into it.
