That’s wild! I went looking for verification (and found it, natch), and it lead me to this tidbit - Safeguarding America’s First Responders Act which became law last August. From the summary:
For purposes of death benefits, this bill creates a general presumption that a public safety officer who dies from COVID-19 or related complications sustained a personal injury in the line of duty.
For purposes of disability benefits, the bill creates a general presumption that COVID-19 or related complications suffered by a public safety officer constitutes a personal injury sustained in the line of duty.
It should now be amended to omit any officers who decline the vaccine. The idea that it just assumes they got the virus in the line of duty is also a stretch now, since we see how many of them are Dirty Harry types. They were probably gathering, not social distancing and not masking up, so they could’ve caught it anywhere and actually been spreading it to the public before they got symptomatic.
