As the Delta wave continues to grow, the issue of vaccine mandates has become more and more central to efforts to combat the pandemic. Cook County Judge James Shapiro threw a new wrinkle into the works when he ordered that Mrs. Firlit be stripped of all parenting time with her son — custody if whom she shares wirth her ex-husband — until she gets vaccinated.

In an exclusive interview with Fox 32, Firlit said, of the decision, “”I think that it’s wrong. I think that it’s dividing families. And I think it’s not in my son’s best interest to be away from his mother.”
