NJ mom, forced to get vaccine before a family wedding, ends up in the ER
Fox News ^ | 02/072022 | Michelle Blood

A daughter's wedding - and all that goes with it — should be about pure joy and celebration. Nothing less.

Yet one New Jersey mother — because of New York City's COVID vaccine mandates that began last summer — found herself enduring a medical emergency she never imagined.

Kathleen Zemlachenko, 63, of Raritan Township, N.J., had chosen not to take the COVID-19 vaccine after consulting with her doctor. Fit and active, Zemlachenko had already tested positive for COVID in January 2021. She had very high antibody levels to prove it.

"I had 3,000 times the antibodies that would have shown somebody as having a positive antibody response," she told Fox News Digital in a recent phone interview.

Zemlachenko did not feel comfortable getting vaccinated until she had more information about the potential side effects for those who had antibodies to the virus.

But last year, "after New York City Mayor [Bill] DeBlasio’s vaccine mandates came out, I really had no choice," Zemlachenko told Fox News Digital.

In mid-August 2021, DeBlasio announced his "Key to NYC" vaccine mandate, which required proof of vaccine for patrons who wanted to visit certain Big Apple establishments.

Unless Zemlachenko took the vaccine, it seemed highly probable that she would not be allowed to join her daughter, Emily — the youngest of her five children (she has three daughters and two sons) — for a wedding-dress fitting experience for mother and daughter at a Manhattan shop ahead of Emily's November 2021 wedding.

Zemlachenko felt coerced into a difficult decision. The path she chose wound up putting her life in jeopardy.

Isn’t it amazing these same idiots today forcing people to get the clot shot are the same ones who told people NOT to get it when Trump was in office.

I have never heard of any forced mandates to get the jabs.
1 day before wedding?
How does that help?
Vaccine does not INSTANTLY create anti-bodies.

As a MOB, I can tell you that wedding dress shopping is not not just “shopping”. I would have made the same choice and been mad as hell about the mandate that wrecked everything.

Just glad my youngest got married the year before WuFlu was loosed on the world.

That's how it is under communism, the New Normal.

My daughter had to change her wedding plans 3 times in 2020. It went from a 200 guest affair in NY state to 12 people on a beach in North Carolina, with a middling size plan at an alternate location in New York in between. First 2 ideas just fell apart because of Cuomo. In the end, we saved a lot of money, and she had always wanted a small affair. Her fiance did too but his family wanted a large group (many from overseas). But that never happened.

Vax freaks & fools will do anything to distract, deflect, and defend their insanity.

For a wedding/shopping event isn’t forced. That was a choice.

Taking it to hang onto your livelihood is force/coercion.

Dumb story, but useful in that most vaccines don’t send one to the hospital. Lol. So there’s that.

RE: Vaccine does not INSTANTLY create anti-bodies.

In this poor woman’s case, it was unnecessary. She already has high antibody levels.

The problem with this one-size-fit-all vaccine mandate is it does not take into account acquired *Natural Immunity*, which study after study show is SUPERIOR to vaccines. The mandate also works on the now *disproven* assumption that being vaccinated prevents you for being infected and transmitting Covid.

"after New York City Mayor [Bill] DeBlasio’s vaccine mandates came out, I really had no choice,"

Well, I guess that depends on how you look at it.

I analogize getting the shots to stepping into the boxcars to be "resettled in the East".

When viewed through that perspective, you most certainly DO have a choice. If you decide to get on that train, you go to its destination.

You have a choice. Don't get on the train.

I’m glad I live somewhere this insanity does not exist. Wife and son were under mandate at their part time job so they quit and got better paying part time jobs. This area was under mask mandate but the town councils had to renew them every 30 days, none did. They have people thinking they’re still under mandate when in actuality they are not. People are clueless.

This was not about public health or disease prevention - it was about compliance with a government regulatory mandate

Not only NJ, but any city in NY outside of NYC. The daughter seems a little selfish, she knew her mother had chosen not to be vaccinated but just had to buy her gown in NYC.
