UPDATE: “KEY TO NYC” VACCINE MANDATE LIFTED EFFECTIVE MARCH 7, 2022
NYC Mayor Eric Adams has announced that the Key to NYC program mandating proof of vaccination to enter certain indoor public businesses, including restaurants, bars, gyms and entertainment venues, will officially end Monday, March 7th. Businesses are free to continue requiring proof of full or partial vaccination at their election.

As we advised earlier this week, at present the vaccine requirement will only be lifted as to patrons - the NYC private employer vaccine mandate requiring all private sector employees working in New York City to provide their employer with proof of full vaccination in order to work on premises remains in effect, and now covers employees previously subject to the Key to NYC requirements.
