You will get slaughtered by most on here, but not by me and here is why....
This isn't a ******* vaccine, it serves a similar function to the flu shot. The fact that we are using that word to describe this shot has Salk weeping from his grave. Does the shot serve it's intended purpose? The shots merits and whether or not it goes in one's body should be up to everyone as individuals and shouldn't be a part of HR decisions. Are flu shots required or used in HR decisions by private companies? None that I know of.
This shot has some pretty bad side effects for SOME otherwise healthy folks, bad enough that people don't want it. Others with certain conditions are being advised by their DOCTORS not to get the shot. So, should these folks be discriminated against by private companies? That's an interesting take if you are good with that.
Finally, the idea that using one's Covid shot status in HR decisions is A-OK because, "capitalism", doesn't float with me. "Go get another job", doesn't float with me. And I guarantee that those of you that don't own your own businesses, but instead built a corporate career would absolutely BALK at these notions if you believed in (or didn't believe in) something strong enough. You know what building a career is like and how difficult and costly it can be to switch streams mid paddle.
The arrogance and near elitism that is being demonstrated by some on this subject is sad. What is sadder is the way that many of us are fine with the benchmark of liberty robbing practices that is being set. Those that would steal our freedom will not stop out of the goodness of their hearts. They will take and take and take.
