I also think it should have been pushed to highly recommend over okay let's say 60 year olds; and only mandated to the health care profession they are the highest risk. I know many went on vents, and a lab tech that died.

I would have lost my job if I didn't get the flu shots for years. If I had quit I wouldn't think of myself as a hero. It has turned into a divisive issue with scary stories and fake Fauchi worsening by the day.

I also think it is downright nutty too think the vax is the mark of the beast, or a shot that will kill you in a few years-- or make you vote democrat because Gates formed it in his lab.

Fauchi and the CDC lady needs fired.

I am going not only for the religious but also the medical exemption. However, you know as well as I do that as soon as I put my name on that exemption list, it will also be the same list that they use to fire people. My days are numbered there


They are making people with exemptions get tested once a week to put more pressure on people at my work

This is strong-arming and unethical. I have valid medical concerns about the shot. Now I am going to lose my job because I have legitimate concerns and will NOT be forced into it by anyone.

I'm willing to take this stand but it is very scary considering that I have a wife and kids to provide for.

frick these NAZIs.


Lose your job then idiot.

IF you have an actual, legitimate medical reason then you can almost certainly apply for an exemption. Get a doctors note.

If not then you’re a fricking fool and need to get off this board of loons and go get the perfectly fine vaccine.

They firing all the fat people? Obesity being a known risk factor of course.

They also can’t “require whatever they want” because certain civil rights, such as religious exemptions, are protected by law.

How come NOBODY wants to discuss natural immunity?

Having had the virus is the best vaccine on the planet......

Vaccine companies don't make $ on the NOVAX community.

Natural immunity is better but that argument is fricking stupid, that’s why no body discusses it.


Hurr hurr I don’t want to get sick so I’m going to get sick so I don’t get sick

You get vaccinated and you may just not get sick at all. You don’t need natural immunity then. If you get sick, you still get natural immunity.

If you mean proving you had covid before then sure, that should be allowed in lieu of vaccination.

My company is doing the same but if you have a documented medical reason or religious reasons then you don’t have to get it but no telling what they are going to put those workers with exemptions thru on a fail, weekly, monthly basis

From what I have read, antibody testing for post covid infections are pretty accurate. I suppose if a company would choose to accept an antibody test as proof of prior infection, how often would it be necessary?

On the other hand, I could be wrong, but my understanding of antibody testing in the vaccinated population is a bit trickier and maybe not very well interpretable. So say a company requires the vaccine, might they some months down the road require antibody testing which no one knows how to interpret. Lots of what ifs ......

that company probably spent a fortune on anti-racism and diversity training to have you sit through an hour of "my body, my choice" lectures, just to turn around and make you put something in your body.

Lol, what religion is against vaccines?

Isn't trying to hide behind your religion and lying about it pretty offensive to God?

This right here. All its going to take is the wrong people to say no, people they do not want to lose, and it will end quickly.

My company tested the waters with mandating it, and when they heard who was going to say frick no, it quickly died. They were not going to lose top people over it.

Would if private companies showed indisputable facts that gay men suffer disproportionately from some medical conditions and certain diseases, can these gay men be terminated or not hired because the company doesn’t believe it’s their burden/responsibility to take on the higher medical risk?
