De Blasio requiring all newly hired city employees be vaccinated
NY Post
New York City will now only hire vaccinated municipal workers, Mayor Bill de Blasio announced Monday, amid an escalation of COVID-19 precautions aimed at curbing the spread of the Delta variant of the virus.
“Effective immediately, every single new person hired by the city of New York, before they report to work, they must provide proof of vaccination,” de Blasio said from City Hall during a remote press briefing. “Every new employee must provide proof of vaccination, or they cannot start their new job.” “That is a pure vaccine mandate for new employees,” he added. “This is another step, as we intensify the vaccination effort.”More Related News
