The New York City Fire Department (FDNY) fears that come Nov. 1, potentially as many as 20% of the fire companies in New York City could be shut down, and 20% fewer ambulances may be on the road.
The Department must manage the unfortunate fact that a portion of our workforce has refused to comply with a vaccine mandate for all city employees,” said FDNY Fire Commissioner Daniel A. Nigro. “We will use all means at our disposal, including mandatory overtime, mutual aid from other EMS providers, and significant changes to the schedules of our members. We will ensure the continuity of operations and safety of all those we have sworn oaths to serve.”
The FDNY would face significant closures, with 20% fewer ambulances to run calls and 20% fewer fire companies available. FDNY Commissioner Daniel Nigro said Thursday morning that the department will use all resources to ensure “continuity of operations.”
Mayor Bill de Blasio’s mandate would require all first responders in New York City to have at least the first shot of a vaccine regimen by 5 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 29 or go on leave without pay starting the following Monday.

There’s a famous madhal of a town that built a hospital next to the place where people were falling to their deaths. I care More about protecting people from getting sick then to bring them to the hospitals.
I wonder if any of those damaged by this lack of response can sue the mayor civilly. It’s alarming how public servants are able to use their positions to avoid personal responsibility.
This is gonna be fun. It’s actually pretty entertaining to see liberals go against everything they stand for by telling people what to do in their own lives. They drown in their own mucus
Welcome to communist russia
Stevenn, firing 1/4 of all firemen, cops, and hospital staff will not prevent anyone from getting sick. What it will do is kill people. Literally. But you don’t give a hoot about their lives, you are glad to sacrifice them to your avoda zara, just to punish disobedience.
