Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, told its campuses this month to fuggedaboudit when it comes to COVID-19 vaccine mandates.

It’s not clear the taxpayer-funded institution, which tested the jabs for reduction of symptoms but not transmission in clinical trials for Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson, can forget about legal consequences, however.

A lawsuit by independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Children’s Health Defense seems destined for the Supreme Court to determine whether Rutgers “suspending” the mandate, as an April 1 systemwide email announced, is enough to end the litigation.
