Vaccination rates for New York’s Bravest are moving upward at a strong clip 10 days after the city’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate took effect, the Mayor’s office reported Thursday.

The percentage of New York City firefighters who rolled up their sleeves to get at least the first dose of the serum jumped six points in the past week, from 79% on Nov. 3 to 85% on Nov. 10. The Mayor’s office noted the Nov. 10 number represents a seven-point jump since Nov. 1, the date the mandate began, and 27% since Mayor Bill de Blasio announced on Oct. 19 the requirement for all city employees.
