LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles County sheriff says he will not enforce the county's vaccine mandate in his agency.

Sheriff Alex Villanueva, who oversees the largest sheriff's department in the country with roughly 18,000 employees, said Thursday in a Facebook Live event that he does not plan to carry out the county's mandate, under which Los Angeles County employees had to be fully vaccinated by Oct. 1.

The mandate was issued by executive order in August and allows only for religious and medical exemptions. Villanueva said his employees are willing to be terminated rather than get vaccinated.

“I don’t want to be in a position to lose 5, 10% of my workforce overnight on a vaccine mandate,” the sheriff said.

Villanueva's announcement came a day after the city of Los Angeles approved one of the nation’s strictest vaccine mandates — a sweeping measure that requires the shots for everyone entering bars, restaurants, nail salons, gyms or even a Lakers game.

1. Should be terminated immediately for failing to do his job.

2. Remove him immediately. If his employees are 'willing to be terminated' make their dreams come true.

3. Isn't Covid the #1 killer of cops now?

This guy should realize he's going to lose them now, or lose them later.

4. slowly people

are showing their colours...I remember blue and grey. What's it going to be this time blue and yellow, yellow depicting deceit also? Or chartreuse...if people don't want to wear masks, so be it. I wear mine wherever I go and into whatever establishment. Anti-maskers and vaxxers? Please do proceed in your ignorance and stupidity. The sooner I'm rid of you the better I'll feel.

5. The Sheriff is an outlaw.

6. "I don't want to be in a position to lose 5, 10% of my workforce

overnight on a vaccine mandate" - So how many employees is he willing to lose to COVID? That made no sense whatsoever.

7. My county has a masking mandate for stores and public buildings, with large signs posted at every

entrance door. The mandates are being ignored; most people go unmasked, even store employees. No one enforces anything because it's bad for business.

8. Has anyone ever been prosecuted for defying a mask mandate anywhere?

Surely, there must be tens of thousands people convicted one would think.

9. If he doesn't have to follow the law why should anyone else?

10. if he won't enforce the laws remove him
