New York's state court system says there's been an upturn in the reported vaccination rate among its employees, new figures that come as court administrators move forward with a coronavirus vaccination mandate.

At least 84 percent of the workforce at the state court system has reported being fully vaccinated as of last Friday afternoon, according to system spokesman Lucian Chalfen. The figure is an increase from Sept. 21 when the reported vaccination rate came in at 77 percent.
