Athletes who are not vaccinated against COVID-19 in New York City are now allowed to play in home games after Mayor Eric Adams announced that athletes and performers no longer have to adhere to the private business vaccine mandate.
“Today, I sign emergency Executive Order 62, expanding the performance exemption to private employer mandates,” Adams said during a news conference at Citi Field on Thursday. “This is about putting New York City-based performers on a level playing field.”
