A federal judge on Saturday dismissed a lawsuit brought by 117 Houston Methodist staff over the hospital’s policy requiring all employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19.
Why it matters: This is the first federal court ruling on a coronavirus vaccine mandate. Attorney Jared Woodfill, representing the plaintiffs, told KHOU 11 it’s “the first battle in a long fight,” as he vowed to file another lawsuit soon.
Driving the news: U.S. District Judge Lynn Hughes noted in the ruling that the federal government has advised that companies can require workers to get vaccines.
