Mayor Bill de Blasio sprung a COVID-19 vaccine mandate on all private businesses in New York City on Monday—drawing immediate rebuke from trade groups and some fellow elected officials who said the backbone of the Big Apple was “blindsided” by the stunning move.
Adding to the shockwave, the policy is scheduled to go into effect in just 21 days, on Dec. 27. The announcement left New Yorkers and the city’s business community flabbergasted. Kathryn Wylde, head of the business group Partnership for NYC, blasted the mayor’s announcement. “There’s no forewarning, no discussion, no idea about whether it’s legal or who he expects to enforce it,” she said.

The tyrant also has decreed that children ages 5 to 11 years must be vaxxed in order to enter public buildings (restaurants, museums, etc) and to participate in extracurricular activities at school. There is essentially zero evidence that children are at risk from Covid, but plenty of evidence mounting on dangerous side effects.

it's too late. This is designed to fail. Next will be another lockdown.
Then they will blame it all on the unvaccinated.
This is just evil.

De Blasio and others of his ilk need to be re-introduced to 'citizen justice', ala Mussolini and his 'retirement' party. I think they gave him a necktie as a going away gift.

My employer (a division of one of the top 50 companies in the USA) just sent a directive that all employees must register their vac status (either vac or unvac) by mid-December to comply with OSHA requirements.
Yeah, the courts may find that unenforcable, but my employer probably figured compliance would be better than the Mentally-Addled-Sleepy-Creepy-Crooked-President-Uncle-Joe's bagman is going to want . You know, "Nice company you got there, too bad if summthin' were to happen to it."

What a waste of good honest angst, so much strum und drang! It's meaningless. Goes into effective on Dec 27. DeBlasio leaves office 4 days later.

The statement issued by the incoming mayor was very vague and mealy-mouthed. New Yorkers shouldn't expect much, if any, relief from Adams.

What is de Blasio going to do if they all say no? They don't have enough police to enforce this and whatever police they have will probably not do it. Time for his honor to fade stage left.

There are certain 'ethnic' neighborhoods that will ignore this completely. I am proud to be of one.

From the column: "Longtime political strategist Hank Sheinkopf said de Blasio, who in recent months has taken steps toward a run for governor next year, imposed the new restrictions to further his standing with the state’s liberal voters. "
To further his standing with the state's liberal voters? There's nothing remotely "liberal" about destroying someone's life over a vaccine which doesn't work. Liberals have become TYRANTS if they support diblasio in this.

from the Gateway Pundit: "One of Florida’s biggest hospital systems suspended all of its Covid vaccine mandates.
Advent Health will no longer require its 83,000 employees to be vaccinated against Covid.
The decision to suspend the vax mandate comes after Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill preventing employers from enforcing vax mandates."
Elections matter. the Florida governor was elected by a hair over a corrupt socialist backed by the usual dirty money and by a couple tens of thousand votes we are enjoying the fruits.

How about if every employer said, "OK, fine, I'm not going to do that, and you're all fired!" And then, shut down.
Imagine. What a great song. Imagine a NYC in which no one went to work. No trash collection, no restaurants, no groceries, no police, no fire, no ambulance, no hospital, no.... just no. It'd be great to see.

I don't understand these mayors/governors who do this. Are they thinking that they will go down in history as great saviors? Are they pocketing secret money? Have they been promised great political advances and riches by the powers-that-be if they follow their orders? Are their hearts so void of Jesus that the devil has moved in and controls them? I believe it is "all of the above."

This grifter has been living off the public dime his whole life. This is one last attempt to get the AOC crowd to support his run for Governor ... Senator ... congressman ... whatever! As long as he and his thieving wife don't have to get real jobs.
Notice it takes effect 3 days before the new mayor gets sworn in.

Good. Destroy everyone by decree. Parents who follow the media led herd have to choose to be informed or to ruin their children's health because of rat lunatics. We keep stepping closer to real life and death conflict. I wonder if I will ever see rats getting the street justice other tyrants received.

#38, Floridians don't mind you New Yorkers moving to the Sunshine State. Heck, we don't even mind your accents -- it adds to the local flavor. And it wasn't until more than a few of you showed up that a decent bagel shop opened in the state. Just don't bring your politics with you. The incredibly beautiful, bountiful state of New York wasn't fouled up by any natural disaster, any war, any shortage of natural or economic resources, any quirk of fate -- it was fouled up by the politicians you chose and the policies they imposed. And you chose them year after year after year after year after year.

Vote for evil liberals, get evil liberal rules.

DeBlasio is a joke and only has less than a month to go. Thank goodness. BUT, his successor, the exalted saviour of NYC is not even in NYC. He is off on vacation. I worked at fairly high levels in NYC government for 30 years and it is absolutely astonishing that this clown Eric Adams, is off on vacation instead of putting together his government. What the hell is he doing? Every other mayor-elect during this time has already announced his police commissioner, his deputy mayors, and major commissioners. Rudy Giuliani pretty much laid out his major policies during this transition period. This moron will not be able to do crap on January 1.
Every single NYC newspaper, including the conservative NY Post, endorsed this fool and now we see just how he will "govern." Small businesses, get ready, because Adams will probably not change this mandate. We already know he smokes pot and is happy that it is "legalized" and we already know that he supports illegal aliens voting. People say NYC can't get worse than under DeBlasio. Just watch.

I just wish we'd not have to read a daily running tally of new covid cases and the number of deaths every day. We don't keep a tally of cases/deaths from cancer, heart disease, the flu or any other illnesses every day. If it's just to keep the fear factor up, I think it's starting to lose its effectiveness.

The fascist tyranny doesn't make sense but the injections are safe? I have no claim to have any idea what the future holds but since none of this is statistically supported and defies the U.S. Constitution, the Nuremberg Code and UN resolutions this is not going to end well.
