Judge rules jurors can still serve in criminal trial regardless of vaccination status

The Hill reports:
A Pennsylvania judge on Friday ruled that jurors could still serve on a criminal trial regardless of their coronavirus vaccination status, The Associated Press reported. Prosecutors had sought to keep unvaccinated jurors or those who had not yet received a booster shot from being able to serve, arguing that they want to avoid people having to quarantine if they were exposed by other jurors and noting they wanted to keep those involved in the trial safe, the news outlet noted.
An interesting article.
