The New York City Department of Education is placing dozens of educators on unpaid leave to investigate whether they tried to use fake COVID-19 vaccine cards to meet city requirements to continue working in the school system. School spokesperson Nathaniel Styer said, “Fraudulent vaccination cards are not only illegal, they also undermine the best line of protection our schools have against COVID-19 – universal adult vaccination. We immediately moved to put these employees – fewer than 100 – on leave without pay.” The United Federation of Teachers, which represents district employees, says approximately 70 of its members were contacted by the Department of Education. “We are reviewing appropriate legal action to potentially challenge the DOE’s unilateral action in removing these employees from payroll,” the union said in a statement.
