Mayor Eric Adams stated that he will maintain the current vaccine mandate in effect for all employees in New York City. All people who perform in-person work or who interact with the public must have 2 doses of the vaccine (if Moderna or Pfizer) by February 10, 2022 and were already required to have had one dose to be admitted to the workplace. Employers must verify proof of vaccine, maintain records for each employee, and must sign and pose an affirmation that they are incompliance with the mandate. Though the Mayor has said his Administration will focus on compliance rather than penalty, the law allows for fines starting at $1,000.
