I heard the jury's still out on science.

To be fair, in states where vaccination rates are higher, you are more likely to have sane and rational people who social distance, wear masks, and regularly sanitize.

The fools who are saying the vaccine doesn't stop the spread are more likely to be the ones who also think being asked to wear a mask is akin to slavery and other forms of oppression. They're also the ones who think that herd immunity (basically going out there and getting yourself sick) was the best course of action. And finally, they are most likely the same group of people who will take horse medicine suggested by a conspiracy podcaster over recommendations from a doctor.

"The court found Monday that "being vaccinated does not prevent an individual from contracting or transmitting COVID-19.""

That damn redneck, backwoods, right-wing New York Court of Appeals.

Nice edit of his original post that allows you to completely ignore the fact that he already addressed this, chief.

"The fools who are saying the vaccine doesn't stop the thread". What part of him being wrong are you having difficulty understanding? Or does Pfizer, the New York Court of Appeals, and a consensus of scientists and medical professionals somehow not qualify as "fools who are saying the vaccine doesn't stop the spread" even though that is exactly what they are saying?

Stop the thread? You can't even copy and paste correctly.

Ramble on though, chief.

The unvaccinated were handled appropriately. They represented a risk to themselves and others and increased the costs on local and state government. Workers having to miss work for more days and receive what would be otherwise unnecessary treatment is a compelling state interest.

You mean NY State Supreme Court.

Which, in New York, is the trial-level court, meaning they could appeal the ruling, which would then go to the Court of Appeals, which is their highest court.

Ralph Porzio is the judge who issued the ruling, and he is a Republican, so I guess you were close at least.

Edit: And it looks like the city has already filed an appeal.

Yeah the NY Supreme Court is the trial court. I believe it’s the only state to do this. I can attest because this really ****ed up everybody in Law School on assignments that involve NY cases lol

Could you try not using facts? It confuses others.

I don't doubt it, it's such a weird thing to have one state randomly do it that way.

Nope. I mean exactly what I said.

"In the Federal court system, and most U.S. states, the court of last resort is known as the "Supreme Court". New York, however, calls its trial and intermediate appellate courts the "Supreme Court", and the court of last resort the Court of Appeals."
