A federal appeals court reversed a decision made over the weekend regarding the vaccine mandate for Department of Education staff: now employees have until Friday, October 5 @ 1pm to get their first dose of the vaccine, otherwise they will be removed from payroll and the DOE will figure out what to do over a weekend. I received an email from my union president about this half an hour ago and wonder exactly what will happen next Monday.
The mayor has said there will be enough substitute teachers out there to take care of the students who need them. I am somewhat skeptical of the quality of those folks but recognize that this may be the only way to get the stragglers vaccinated. I do support it and the science seems more than justified to me to make it a mandate. We'll see what happens.
