Firefighters, cops, and emergency medical technicians rallied against Boston Mayor Michelle Wu's vaccine mandate on Wednesday.
"Making it that we either get the vaccine or we lose our jobs is not how we're going to stop this pandemic," said Shana Cottone, president of Boston First Responders United, which organized the rally outside the Massachusetts State House, according to State House News Service. "We need to find a middle ground, a compromise that actually does stop COVID and also ensures that all of our city services are fully staffed because you are going to compound the problem of a pandemic with quality of life issues."
