Though 91 percent of the city’s municipal workforce had gotten at least one COVID vaccine shot as of Saturday night, those who haven’t will be sent home without pay if they report for work on Monday when the city starts enforcing the order.
The New York Post reported Saturday that 26 firehouses across the city had been shuttered because of the staff shortage, according to Republican Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis and city council member Joe Borelli. The city has denied the report, claiming that, technically, no full firehouses were closed, just companies within those firehouses — though it’s not clear how much distinction there is in that difference.
In a Sunday interview with the New York Times, Uniformed Firefighters Association president Andrew Ansbro denied that an organized sickout was underway. The union leader claimed instead that hundreds of firefighters were experiencing flu-like side effects from getting vaccinated. The NYPD has also had to shift officers to address mandate-related staff shortages An unnamed NYPD detective told Gothamist that the department, which currently has an 84 percent vaccination rate, has had to redeploy personnel to address staffing issues caused by vaccine holdouts. There have also been retirement drives in recent days aimed at officers who don’t want to receive a COVID vaccine, though it’s not clear how many have done so.
