Sweeping new vaccine mandates for 100 million Americans

[–] jobes 4 points (+4|-0)

The expansive rules mandate that all employers with more than 100 workers require them to be vaccinated or test for the virus weekly, affecting about 80 million Americans.

I wasn't aware that the executive branch had that level of control over the private sector

Now, despite more than 208 million Americans having at least one dose of the vaccines, the U.S. is seeing about 300% more new COVID-19 infections a day, about two-and-a-half times more hospitalizations, and nearly twice the number of deaths compared to the same time last year.

So, like 70% of the country is vaccinated, but infection rates and deaths are double since before the vaccines were available. Hmm....

They dont, and hopefully this won't stand up in court. But damn is this scary.

OSHA fines, apparently.

Mandating for public workers is pretty extreme - at least the private workers have an option to test instead.

Only 52 tests every year to avoid the vaccine...

It'll go out of fashion in a year... once they mandate the microchips.

The old creepy senile man should be much more worried about ligma.
