Vaccination against COVID-19 will no longer be mandatory for New York City municipal workers beginning this Friday, Feb. 10, but roughly 1,780 former city employees fired for not meeting the mandate will have to reapply for their old positions, instead of being automatically rehired, Mayor Eric Adams announced Monday.

The changes to the city’s vaccine policy are expected to be made official at the next Board of Health meeting on Thursday, according to a release from City Hall.
