Trevor Noah mocks NYC vaccine rules allowing Kyrie Irving to attend games but not play: 'Makes zero sense'

Comedy Central host Trevor Noah is slamming New York City's conflicting coronavirus vaccine mandate standards that allow people to attend indoor events without requiring proof of vaccination, while contrastingly requiring proof of vaccination for employees to go to work.

Comedy Central host Trevor Noah slammed New York City's conflicting coronavirus vaccine mandate standards that allow people to attend indoor events without requiring proof of vaccination, while requiring proof of vaccination for employees who go to work – including at those same indoor events.

During a segment on Monday's "The Daily Show," Noah mocked a recent instance in which the standards clashed at an NBA game between the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets. At the game, Nets star Kyrie Irving was only allowed to attend as a fan, not as a player or employee, because of his decision to remain unvaccinated.

UNVACCINATED KYRIE IRVING SPOTTED AT BARCLAYS DESPITE STILL BEING BANNED FROM HOME GAMES

"Restrictions are being lifted so quickly, that things are getting a little confusing, you know. Like for example, OK, right here in New York City, Mayor Eric Adams has lifted the rule that you have to be vaccinated to attend indoor events. OK, that is gone. But there is still a rule that you have to be vaccinated to go to your workplace," Noah said. 

"So if someone’s job is at an indoor event, they can’t go to work. But they can show up to work to watch their colleagues do their thing. Yeah. Which is exactly what happened this weekend," he added, before playing a video clip of a news report on Irving buying a ticket to watch his own team play from the stands.
