Today is the deadline for health care workers who claimed religious exemptions to the COVID shots to either get vaccinated or lose their jobs.
Workers who have contact with patients at the University of Rochester Medical Center and Rochester Regional Health were notified last week.
The mandate affects hundreds of workers. After today, only medical exemptions will be allowed.
At URMC, those who don't get at least the first dose by the end of the day will be considered to have voluntarily resigned.
