yes, .. not certain if any of the data at this point really is as good as I would like to have ..

probably tons of low or asymptomatic people now ..
I don’t care about “cases” as they’re meaningless.
But there’s no reason they wouldn’t have hospitalized and deaths data…

Got this in an email today from CVS:

What does Halloween have to do with COVID testing? Maybe they are advocating testing each kid as they come up the walkway? "Sorry no candy for you, you are positive'.
Kid: "Trick or Treat?"

Adult: "Uh just roll up your sleeve kid and you'll find out"

They were terminated and are willing to come back to work for the City that cast them aside. The vaccination mandate for City employees was not just about safety and public health; it was about compliance. If it was about safety and public health, unvaccinated workers would have been placed on leave the moment the order was issued.

“If it was about safety and public health, the Health Commissioner would have issued city-wide mandates for vaccination for all residents. In a City with a nearly 80 percent vaccination rate, we shouldn’t be penalizing the people who showed up to work, at great risk to themselves and their families, while we were locked down.

If it was about safety and public health, no one would be exempt. It is time for the City of New York to do what is right and what is just,” Porzio said in his ruling.


Finally, and most importantly, the court ordered the city to reinstate all fired employees and grant them backpay, citing the fact that being vaccinated against COVID-19 does not stop an individual from catching or spreading the virus, and thus being vaccinated does not grant enough community-wide benefit to warrant a mandate. The health commissioner “acted beyond his authority” by issuing an indefinite vaccine mandate rather than a temporary one, according to the court.
