A Federal Appeals Court reverses a previous vaccine decision.
A federal appeals court panel allowed President Biden's COVID-19 vaccine mandate for larger private employers, to move ahead. This reveres a previous decision on a requirement that could affect some 84 million U.S. workers.
The decision by the Circuit Court of Appels in Cincinnati overrules a decision by a federal judge in a separate court that had paused the mandate nationwide.
At least three Christian ministries have asked the Supreme Court to block the vaccine mandate, which requires all companies with 100 employees or more to force workers to get vaccinated or take regular testing for coronavirus. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals blocked the mandate in early November but the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals lifted the stay on Friday.
A number of Attorney Generals from various states, along with other groups, say they would appeal the decision to the U.S. Supreme Court.
