`Re: Accommodation Status
`
`Dear Sarah Fiore,
`
`Weare in receipt of your request for a medical exemption from the New York State vaccine
`mandate, requiring health care workers to receive their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine by
`September 27, 2021. After reviewing your request and supporting materials, we are unable to
`grant you a medical exemption from the NYS vaccine mandate. Exemption decisions are based
`on known COVID-19 vaccine safety risks. Your stated reason for a medical exemptionis not a
`contraindication to COVID-19 vaccination. If you feel as though your exemption decision was
`made without consideration of all available and/or relevant information, please submit such
`supplemental documentation to EHSCompliance@northwell.eduno later than September 24.
`
`Assuch, consistent with our requirementsof all other Northwell employees, you are required
`to immediately receive a first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine as a condition of continued
`employment. Unless you take immediate steps to get your first dose, you will be considered
`non-compliant with the COVID-19 vaccine mandate.
`
`Please know that Northwell has a COVID-19 vaccine reserved for all team members. If you are
`interested in receiving a COVID-19 vaccine, you can book an appointment through the
`Employee Health Portal. If you opt to get vaccinated at a non-Northwell source, you can upload
`
`proofto the portal or email it to EHSCompliance@northwell.edu to record your vaccination
`status.
`
`Thank you,
`
