New York's Vaccine Mandate doesn't apply to All Medical Workers.
Thousands of Nurses and other Medical Personnel who work in State Agencies that Care for Inmates, or Disabled and Mentally Ill individuals, will Not be Mandated to receive Vaccinations or Face the Loss of their Jobs.
The Mandate is a Policy, that went into effect earlier this week, for Medical Professionals in Hospitals and other Health Care Settings.
The Stricter Mandate was imposed on, Monday Sept. 27th, applies to Workers in Hospitals, including:
- State-run Facilities that fall under the Authority of the State Department of Health or the State University System
- State-Run Optometry and Dental Schools
- Nursing Homes
- Veterans Facilities
But a Second Mandate, that's scheduled to take effect Oct. 12th, will give All other State Employees, including Thousands of Nurses and Physicians in Executive-controlled Agencies such as, the Office of Mental Health, and Office for People With Developmental Disabilities, the Ability to be Tested Weekly for COVID-19 in lieu of being Vaccinated.
The Oct. 12th Mandate also will apply to Medical Personnel who work in Patient-Care settings in State Prisons.
