Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, told its campuses this month to fuggedaboudit when it comes to COVID-19 vaccine mandates.
It's not clear the taxpayer-funded institution, which tested the jabs for reduction of symptoms but not transmission in clinical trials for Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson, can forget about legal consequences, however.
A lawsuit by independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Children's Health Defense seems destined for the Supreme Court to determine whether Rutgers "suspending" the mandate, as an April 1 systemwide email announced, is enough to end the litigation.
The University of California Los Angeles didn't fare so well when it tried to end a class-action suit against its former mandate by fired employees, with a Superior Court judge ruling in January that some parts of the case could proceed to legal discovery.
Finland's government may be in trouble as well, with an adviser and World Health Organization vaccine expert reportedly undermining its posture in a lawsuit against Finland's onetime "CovidPass" by citizen Mika Vauhkalaafter after a cafe denied him entry for not having the passport.
According to journalist Ike Novikoff, reporting outside Helsinki District Court on Thursday, senior physician Hanna Nohynek testified that her Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare, part of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health, knew by summer 2021 "and possibly earlier" the vaccines weren't stopping transmission or infection.

Hmmm, I got fired by MIT for declining to get the first booster. It would be nice to collect back pay plus damages for the last 3 years.
bttt
Go for it. I hope you win.
MIT has plenty in their endowments for your damages. Jeffery Epstein made sure of that.
Great...hopefully there will be many. many lawsuits against these tyrant academic losers.
Lawsuits to follow?
Good luck! You deserve a win.
My wife was fired from Hamilton after 20 years in good standing for refusing the vaxx (and I’m glad she did).
...the lawyer we hired said that the chances of winning a tort against universities is low since they guard their monies with great tenacity.
Yeah, it’s Massachusetts. I’ll just toss my name in the ring for a class action. My guess is that any lawsuit will go as fast as recovery for the Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis. My heirs might get some small tip.

There was a joke answer to that question, but I can’t remember the punchline.
“Hmmm, I got fired by MIT for declining to get the first booster. It would be nice to collect back pay plus damages for the last 3 years.”
Lawfare works both ways...bankrupt them.
At least half of the universities in this country should go bankrupt.
CDC Study Doesn't 'Debunk' Link Between COVID-19 Vaccines & Sudden-Deaths
Colleges and unis have a trillion in endowments nationwide.
I hope injured faculty and students sue to drain them dry.
I don’t think it is a coincidence that Rutgers is dropping the mandates; NJ colleges are getting crushed by out-of-state competition (due to much lower tuitions in much nicer environments) and many are struggling with enrollment. Out-of-state colleges advertise heavily here in NJ, and the state leaders understand that when young people leave here to go to school elsewhere, they often don’t return (most pastures ARE greener for young skilled workers).
This is also why neighboring NY is removing college degree requirements for many jobs; too many people who earn a degree won’t remain in the state for the slim opportunities available. NY even offers free tuition in the state system, and still has to remove the degree requirements! The brain drain here in the northeast is palpable, and the imported Mexicans/Venezuelans/Congolese/etc. are no substitute for a skilled workforce. The market can only absorb so many Uber drivers and prostitutes...
Well-reasoned and well said.
Now I remember how the joke goes:
Q: What is the state college of New Jersey?
A: University of Maryland.
I remember seeing a great many NJ license plates when I lived in the area.
Nice!
The problem began decades ago, when colleges expanded due to the massive increase in “students” interested mainly in draft deferments; the end of the draft accompanied by the decrease in GI Bill-eligible students has caused many of these schools to slowly circle the drain.
