JPM denying entry to the unvaxxed

JPMorgan anounced Tuesday that it is banning all unvaccinated workers and guests from its Manhattann offices to try to keep masking rules relaxed while complying with Gov. Hochul’s controversial mask-or-vaccine mandate for businesses.

The bank said its nine Manhattan offices, including its headquarter Madison at 383 Ave., will now be “vaccinated only” workplaces, according to a memo to staff that was viewed by The Post.

The company’s other affected offices are at 237 Park Ave., 245 Park Ave., 277 Park Ave., 28 Liberty St., 390 Madison Ave., 410 Madison Ave., 4 New York Plaza and 5 Manhattan West, said the memo, which was from the bank’s “Return to the Office Task Force.”

“All of the above locations will now follow relaxed mask guidelines, which only require masks be worn when walking through lobbies, riding in elevators and in cafés when not eating,” the memo said. “Of course, you may continue to wear a mask when not in these areas if you’re more comfortable doing so.”

Hochul’s new statewide mask mandate went into effect Monday and applies to any business that doesn’t require its workers, customers and visitors to present proof of vaccination against COVID-19. The order requires that workers keep a mask on at all times in such instances unless the person is alone in a room or eating.

Earlier this month, Mayor de Blasio issued a controversial order that requires all privatesector workers in the Big Apple to be fully vaccinated by Dec. 27 and many indoor businesses to ban anyone who has not had two shots. The mandate is expected to be challenged in the courts.
