United Airlines' COVID vaccine mandate is on hold for employees who asked for religious or medical exemptions.

Fewer than 3% of employees requested those exemptions. They were supposed to be put on either medical or paid leave. 

Six employees filed a federal lawsuit against United and will continue getting paid while their case is argued in court.
