1:31Now PlayingOn November 1, New York's mayor said that approximately 9,000 city workers were put on unpaid leave as the COVID-19 vaccine mandate took effect. The Guardian reports that Mayor Bill de Blasio added that thousands of firefighters had called out sick in protest of the mandate. Daniel Nigro, New York's fire commissioner, said that while firehouses remained open, “many units are understaffed." Nigro called on firefighters to stop misusing sick leave and return to work. According to The Guardian, officials have been facing strong resistance among workers holding critical public safety jobs.
