The US administration announced in early November that employees of companies with more than 100 people, medical personnel and employees of federal agency contractors should be vaccinated by January 4, under penalty of weekly tests.
Hours after the Cincinnati appeals court ruling, at least three motions to block the measure were filed with the Supreme Court.
