Dozens of health care workers are suing two hospital networks in Louisiana over their COVID-19 vaccine mandates for employees, arguing that studies have shown the vaccines do not prevent the transmission of the virus.

Lawyers for the plaintiffs said they are seeking temporary and permanent injunctions against vaccine mandates that were handed down by the Ochsner Lafayette General Medical Center and Our Lady of Lourdes Regional Medical Center.
