No, this has been done extensively by healthcare facilities with the flu vaccine and no court has taken any action.

My job forces this on me - Out the door with most of the other Nursing staff. We're a small community Hosp. Watch out what you wish for.

You think there's a shortage now - Hah.

Many health system require the flu shot. This is no different.

I am not convinced that this view has been as dominant as you seem to be suggesting.

Regardless, this is a compelling argument why we do not want the medical profession and pharmaceutical companies dominating the decision making process for these sorts of issues. Just like we do not want the military or the police dominating the decision making process for security, law enforcement and defense issues.

My husbands employer ( 4000 employees) made clear that any employee who chooses to not vaccinate needs to look for a job.

It is going to host multiple on-site vaccine clinics, no diff than they do with the annual flu shot.

Great...everybody should get the vaccine...then we will get rid of the Covid pandemic.

Many Colleges are doing this...all 23 California State Universities and all 10 University of California colleges are mandating the vaccine as well.

I agree. I am in favor of this employer mandate.

This so-called "vaccine" is not at all the same thing as the flu shot.

This proposed policy is economic coercion and an unethical invasion of privacy against anyone who objects this "vaccine" based on safety concerns, not to mention religious or conscionce based concerns.
