The mayor\u2019s office confirmed, 9,000 city employees were placed on leave without pay Monday.<\/p>\n<p>According to city data, however, more than 22,000 municipal workers remain unvaccinated. Those employees have not been placed on unpaid leave yet as they wait for exemption requests to be reviewed.<\/p>\n<p>This comes as Democrat Mayor Bill De Blasio tried to downplay the crisis and even accused first responders of lying. Meanwhile, police precincts are short-staffed and fire companies have been temporarily shut down. This is prompting major concerns over public safety.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FDNY?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@FDNY<\/a> Ladder 149 in Dyker Heights <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Brooklyn?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Brooklyn<\/a> was closed today due to Mayor de Blasio\u2019s overreaching vaccine mandate.
