An injunction filed to protect two Seattle firefighters who were fired for not getting COVID-19 vaccines was rejected by a Washington judge.
The motion was denied due to the firefighters’ inability to prove they endured irreparable injuries from their firing, according to King County Judge Matthew Williams.

Still, Seattle’s vaccine mandate is still in effect, with no signs of being lifted.
