BREAKING: Gov Murphy to Mandate Covid-19 Vaccine for Teachers

Governor Murphy is expected to announce in the coming days that he is requiring teachers in New Jersey to receive a Covid-19 vaccine. 

It isn’t yet known whether Murphy will give teachers the option to be tested regularly for a Covid-19 infection instead of being vaccinated, as he has allowed for employees of hospitals and other health care settings.

It also is not yet known whether the mandate will include teachers in non-public schools.

Either way, it is the clearest indication yet that the governor does not believe that the Covid-19 pandemic is over in New Jersey, nor does he expect cases of the virus to drop in the near future.

  1. Where are the so called Lakewood Askonim? We don’t need more food boxes … right now this needs to be protested … not everyone can get the vaccine for a multitude of reasons …

    When are we going to stand up to tyranny?

      • many possible reasons. Here are a few.
        1. I recovered from covid
        2. My health care provider told me NOT to get the vaccine.
        3. My health care provider did not tell that I should get the vaccine.
        4. If I didn’t get the third shot, does that mean I’m not vaccinated? What about the fourth or fifth shot when they come out?
        5. I never knew that Phil Murphy, governor of NJ is a medical doctor! Actually, he is not. He has no business telling me what kind of medical intervention I need.
        6. My dr. told me to take no medications during pregnancy not even tylenol, and if I do, to be very careful what I take.
        6. HIPPA laws are not meant to be violated.

  2. What a tyrant may he meet the same downfall as his friend Cuomo!! Why is there complete disregard to those that have recovered from covid? Mandatory Vaccines is so wrong!!!

  3. I am a teacher in NJ. Let them FIRE me if they want. DO NOT quit. But I will NOT take this death shot nor will I test frequently. We all need to resist together and then resist some more because the vaccine is not the goal. The end goal is tyranny and control of every aspect of your life! It doesn’t end with 2 vaccines… WAKE UP

  4. And Should it get to the point that it’s dangerous and Yeshivos won’t be able to open, I don’t think anyone should be upset. Because would it make sense to say that I don’t care if people will be harmed, after all I want to learn hilchos nezikin and retzichah, chai bahem etc. Etc.

      • Of course people are getting sick with what’s called covid but every fact about it from the “there are no treatments” to the faulty pcr tests to the “we must lock down” and masks that no one ever said works for any virus until covid came along are all one BIG plan and one BIG scam to control the population and will lead to tyranny. You must wake up and research this info. It is no longer a conspiracy theory. Its already happening in many parts of the world like Australia, ecaudor, etc.

  5. @truth
    Considering your level of scientific comprehension (death shot), and your self-proclaimed refusal to follow basic rules (will not test frequently), maybe you should be fired, instead of risking having the likes of you educating future generations.
    Even if you personally don’t feel like getting vaccinated, for whatever reason, whoever hired you is certainly allowed to demand that you be tested, in the absence of vaccination. You don’t get to set the rules of your employment. Teach that to yourself, first.

    • If we dont resist the tyranny it will only get worse. This is not about HEALTH that’s where your mistake is. I had covid already, know how to prevent and treat it if Isomehow do get it again which is not very likely, and know that the tests are severely faulty in any case so it’s just an exercise in futility. Name one other disease that we conducted ourselves like this – that we had to answer to our boss that we were not carrying this disease on a weekly basis. We have come to accept this as normal when it is anything but.

    • If you research this vaccine (which is not so easy because the truth is censored) and propaganda abounds on MSM, you will know that there are thousands of deaths and severe injuries from them worldwide. The data that was leaked from the MOH in Israel shows that most of the people who have covid there now were vaccinated, which logically makes sense, because most of the people there are vaccinated already. This vaccine is obsolete and not working for new variants, and people with natural immunity have much more robust immunity. It’s not dangerous for the kids in any case. You just need to know the true facts and then you will stop judging people.

  6. I wonder if the schools will exclude all teachers who refuse the shot the way they did to children 3 yrs ago.

    After all Fauxi said they are safe and effective.

  7. How is the teacher being selfish? Where is the data showing that teachers are the ones giving the virus to the students? The teacher has a right to decide what goes into their body, not the government! If the teacher said you must medicate your child to be in their class, you’d be furious. I don’t see how this is much different. All the losers talking about worrying about everyone else and protecting the public should go back to their masking and hand washing and rubber gloves…

  8. Whoever believes the pandemic is still going strong and needs drastic measures like vaccines needs to have their head examined. Turn off your TV and stop buying into the propaganda. Hospitalizations for COVID are rare and 95% of cases can be treated with Hydroxi and Ivermectin. The media is doing everything they can to keep the hype going and whoever can’t see that is hopelessly blind.

    • Where I live, people who could be treated at home for covid are often sent to the hospital as a precaution. They could have been treated at home with oxygen or antibiotics but werent (as well as other meds)

  9. Hospitals are understaffed because the mandated vaccine has forced many qualified and health conscious nurses to leave their jobs. If Gov Murphy wants understaffed school, go ahead with the mandate. You won’t win.

  10. When people have questions regarding extreme medical conditions, they ask R’ Chaim. Should they have a life saving surgery with possible ramificiations? Ask R Chaim
    Should they do a specific treatment? Ask R chaim

    R Chaim is saying everyone should vaccinate. What happened to listening to Daas torah now? Is everyone smarter?

  11. The gadol hador, Reb Chaim Kanievsky has said we are obligated to take the vaccines. He has also urged people in Israel to get the third vaccine and his daughter Rebbitzen Kolidetzky has released a video message in the name of her father saying everybody should get the vaccine. End of story.

    • sadly the truth is not the case. Ask him the shayla yourself and then get back to me. Its a lengthy conversation but the truth is deeply painful that this lie was spread. I saw R’ Kolodetsky video. You dont understand what’s going on. This shot is deadly and she was told that with clear evidence… We can only rely on HASHEM.

      • You are right. I dont understand what is going on. She said she is talking in the name of her father.
        Can you please explain what we dont understand? I would like to hear more about it.

        • You need to choose Hashem and life above all and not blindly follow ANYONE especially someone who you are not in touch with daily to know whats going on behind the scenes.

  12. Get ready for schools to be closed and remote learning once again. Especially in Lakewood which has the lowest vaccine rate in the state. Murphy already said he won’t dismiss that option. That tells me that’s on the table

    • Its going around and a lot of people saw it and have it. Its not a new video just not posted on websites. See if you can find someone who has it cuz Im not sure how to post it here.

    • How can I do that? Its not on a website? You think the frum media would dare show you such a video that goes against the mainstream? I also know that people went to R’ Kolodestky and told her they took the shot because she said to and are now seriously injured. The world has to wake up and decide if they are willing to take the risk.

  13. Rabbanim rely on doctors who tell them that it is not dangerous and that there are no side effects. Rav Chaim’s psak was from December when they first were giving it out and didn’t know the side effects. Since then many people have been injured, miscarried in the first trimester (82%) and many suffered cardiac arrest and are in the cardiology ward in the hospitals. Many vaccinated are hospitalized too.
