Federal Judge Blocks Biden’s Vaccine Mandate for Healthcare Workers in 10 States
(Worthy News) – The Biden administration’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for healthcare workers has just been temporarily blocked for hospitals that receive federal funding within 10 states.
A federal judge issued a temporary injunction Monday citing multiple reasons. U.S. District Judge Matthew Schelp said the mandate would result in staffing shortages without evidence that it would actually prevent the spread of the virus.
“The scale falls clearly in favor of healthcare facilities operating with some unvaccinated employees, staff, trainees, students, volunteers and contractors, rather than the swift, irremediable impact of requiring healthcare facilities to choose between two undesirable choices — providing substandard care or providing no healthcare at all,” the judge wrote, according to The Hill.
