NEW YORK (AP) — Mounting trash. Closed firehouses. Fewer police and ambulances on the street.
That’s the possibility New York City is bracing for come Monday as a COVID-19 vaccine mandate looms and thousands of municipal workers remain unwilling to get the shots.
Police officers, firefighters, garbage collectors and most other city workers face a 5 p.m. Friday deadline to show proof they’ve gotten at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Workers who don’t comply will be put on unpaid leave starting Monday.

Nearly one-fifth of city employees covered by the impending mandate have yet to receive at least one vaccine dose as of Thursday, including 16% of police personnel, 29% of firefighters and EMS workers and 33% of sanitation workers, according to city data. City jail guards have another month to comply.

As of 8 p.m. Thursday, 33,400 city workers remained unvaccinated.

What effect do you suppose losing this many first-responders will have on the city?
How long do you think it will be before the streets are (even more) awash in trash?
Who will blink first - the mayor or the unvaccinated?
How is this Trump's fault?

What comes around, goes around.

Amazing how short peoples memories are.

In 1981, Reagan fired 11,000 air traffic controllers. And actually barred them from being able to serve in government.

I've been waiting for a day like this to come. The mayor of NY, should issue an order giving them 24 hours to report to work.

If they don't, fire all of them, take their pensions, and bar them from ever having another job with the city or the state.

If they arent at work, its because he placed them on unpaid leave.
You want them to work while on unpaid leave and want to fire them if they don't?

its new york nobody gives a fuck anymore
 
They can always do what the oil industry does, shut down and start over to bust the union or offer non union more dough than union workers.

Indeed.... Fire all the LEO's and see what happens within the City of New York. This isn't a small town Podunk similar to where you live, this happens to be a City of more than 8 million people and the largest Police Force in America. Additionally De Blasio's order extends to the FDNY, Emergency Services, and Sanitation Dept.
Can he fire them all? Possibly. But doing so will destroy the city....
