officers have until Wednesday to get their COVID-19 shot, or risk being fired,
after the state's top court refused to intervene and stop Gov. Phil Murphy's
vaccine mandate.
Several police unions, led
by the New Jersey State PBA, asked the state Supreme Court Friday for an
emergency stay on Murphy's order after a three-judge appeals panel ruled
against them.
Murphy's order, issued last
month, requires staff at county jails and state prisons to get their first shot
by Wednesday and be fully vaccinated by the end of March.
Those who don't comply face
termination.
