WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court refused Monday to halt a COVID-19 vaccine requirement for health care workers in New York that does not offer an exemption for religious reasons.
The court acted on emergency appeals filed by doctors, nurses and other medical workers who say they are being forced to choose between their jobs and religious beliefs.
As is typical in such appeals, the court did not explain its order, although it has similarly refused to get in the way of vaccine mandates elsewhere.
Justices Neil Gorsuch, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented. “Now, thousands of New York healthcare workers face the loss of their jobs and eligibility for unemployment benefits,” Gorsuch wrote in a 14-page opinion that Alito joined.
New York is one of just three states, along with Maine and Rhode Island, that do not accommodate health care workers who object to the vaccine on religious grounds.
well folks, it looks like the courts arent buying their religious bullshit anyways. nothing is stopping these plague rats from getting the jab and keeping their jobs and still being able to practice their religious beliefs. there is no religion that bans the covid vaccines. in fact all of the main religions across the world are all encouraging getting vaccinated. but tell it to the antivaxxers who will say just about any kind of bullshit while trying to hide behind god. these plague rats can go and cry about it to whatever god they pray to. even the supreme court aint gona hear them out.
