Ugh. Had hoped this would work itself out. Vaccine passport will be required for travel I am expected to make.

Haven’t decided next step. I am absolutely certain I’m the only unvaxxed person in the department. These people stumbled over themselves to get the vax, including lying to get it. While they still “avoid eating indoors,” we have somehow managed a completely normal life since May 2020. Imagine that.

Three young kids and a very specific job function that would require relocation to find a new role… dammit. frick Joe Biden. frick New York. frick liberals.

What's your problem? Just because they're dumbasses that evidently don't trust the vaccine, you should trust it. Just get it and never think about it again.

The trial/testing period for this vaccine was at minimum 1/6 of the time compared to other vaccines. And if the vaccine is to be trusted, why are its manufacturers granted complete civil immunity?

Literally billions of doses in, what all are you waiting for to happen from here?

I'm assuming those decisions were made in like early-mid 2020.

The reason most vaccine trial times are between 6 and 15 years is to flush out the potential long-term side effects of said shots.

This makes it even worse. Let's indemnify a billion dollar industry and incentivize them to be reckless.

Until 4-6! months later eh? Then boosters quarterly for the rest of your life? Go ahead. God gave us rights and reason. There is no reason for a mandate and Feds or States have no right to mandate by our God given rights.

Idiots like Big Scrub don't believe in God, so you are wasting breath.

Who are “they?” “They” obviously are terrified of the scary virus to the point they were sharing ways to lie to get it when first made available. Claimed to be caregivers, etc. “They” are people that still don’t “like” to eat indoors. “They” are the people you see wearing masks walking the dog.

If you don't want it, don't get it.

I have been thinking these jab mandates may have a silver lining. It is causing us to separate, which was probably needed along time ago. Now we have no choice but to separate and start our own companies and an entire parallel economy.

Book travel, accidentally get “exposed” a few days before.

Then you don’t have to jerk off to soccer moms in your 18 wheeler 6 months out of the year.

Isn't that the way it is for all vaccines?

If your colleagues are afraid to eat indoors due to Covid, certainly they should respect your fear of flying due to Covid.

Seriously, who is fearful of eating in a restaurant for an hour, yet is fine with international air travel?

Personal choice... Individual freedoms... Perhaps a religious issue with it... Or simply does not want to take a vaccine that is forced on him...

What is your problem with liberty?

I'm curious about that, too.
It doesn't make any fricking sense.

To be clear, my company hasn't required anything yet.
It's the freaking Javits center and NYC. It's certain international venues. My company even said no one is allowed to ask about vax status in prior communications. But this pops up, so they kinda will be asking. I'm going to wait until Friday afternoon and bring it up to my boss... who lives and works remotely from NYC. Sooooooo.

Maybe don’t lie about it’s inferred immunity?

There’s a big difference between 96% and 39%. Would you be OK with your city council if they put a sign on your street that read

Nah. But I sure do love the many vaccines swirling in me over the years that gave me a quality of life that would be the envy of the majority of people who ever lived.

Just get the vaccine and go on with your life. Are you really that scared of the vaccine that you would risk the livelihood of you and your family?
