New York City's private sector vaccine mandate will remain in place indefinitely, meaning Yankees players who are unvaccinated might not be able to take the field at Yankee Stadium any time soon.
New York City health commissioner Ashwin Vasan made the announcement this week, according to ESPN's Joon Lee.
"I think it's indefinite at this point," he said. "You know, people who have tried to predict what's going to happen in the future for this pandemic have repeatedly found egg on their face."
New York City Mayor Eric Adams said Wednesday some vaccine mandates that prohibit unvaccinated players from competing at home would eventually be reduced, per Lee.
