    As of tomorrow (I think), ANY company with more than 100 employees is mandated by our fearless leaders to require it. But, as stated in the previous post, there are numerous challenges and the Supreme Court is hearing arguments tomorrow if I understood correctly.

    Frankly, I would be surprised if the courts don’t shoot the mandate down.

    If your going to travel through-out the country it's a good idea to get the vaccine. You don't want to get it and you don't want to bring it home to give it to your family and friends

    The problem is the “vaccine” doesn’t keep you from getting nor spreading covid.

    To the OP, unless you are working for a company that crosses into Canada... I don’t think you have anything to worry about. Especially, if it’s a company with less then 100 employees.

    Trucking companies are against these mandates. Because they all need drivers pretty badly! Truckers are not the most vaccinated group out there. In fact over half I’ve chatted with are against the vaccines.

    With omicron being like 97% of new cases and it’s literally as mild as the common cold, will still give you immunity and the current vaccines do nothing against it, we’re probably almost to the end of these mandates. Simply put, the vaccines don’t work, everyone’s going to catch Omicron , Which is mild and therefore everybody will have immunity.

    Anyone who turns you down because of “vaccine”, doesn’t deserve you.

    It reduces the chances. Doing nothing is not a solution
