A federal court is expected to decide if religious exemptions are valid when it comes to the state's vaccine mandate for health care workers.
The state had required everyone working in a hospital to get at least one shot of the vaccine by Sept. 27 -- or risk losing their job.
A temporary restraining order was put in place until Oct. 12 that prevents workers who applied for a religious exemption from being fired.
