According to the new crown vaccination regulations previously issued by the US government, federal government employees and employees of contractors who do business with the federal government must be vaccinated.
However, due to factors such as the politicization of the epidemic, the ineffective government fight against the epidemic, the spread of rumors, and the division of society, many people refuse to be vaccinated, and a large number of public officials in the United States are also forced to leave their jobs because they have not been vaccinated. This phenomenon has led to differences in many parts of the United States. The degree of job shortages.
New York City previously required municipal workers to receive at least one dose of the vaccine before the end of October, otherwise they would face mandatory unpaid leave.

New York Mayor De Blasio said on November 1 that about 9,000 city employees who refused to receive the new crown vaccine were suspended from work.
According to the New York Fire Commissioner, 18 of the 350 fire stations in the city are out of service, and many fire stations are understaffed.
