Survey: Will employees be required to get the COVID-19 vaccination?
https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2021/05/employers-covid-19-vaccination-homeworking/

Almost nine in every 10 companies will require or encourage their employees to get a COVID-19 vaccination or face consequences, according to a new report.

All employees are required to be vaccinated by 40% of companies surveyed in a report from Arizona State University (ASU), the World Economic Forum and the Rockefeller Foundation. Employees will be encouraged but not required by 32% and 16% will require some, but not all, employees to have the jab.

While vaccination programmes are well underway in many of the world’s wealthiest countries, other regions lag far behind, with India and Latin America in the crosshairs. The ASU report assessed responses from 24 industry sectors and 1,339 facilities at 1,168 companies. Most came from companies in the US and UK, which are among the most advanced in terms of vaccination plans.

1. Just had an Aldi employee volunteer that she had not received the vaccine and

would never get it. I asked what she would do if the company required it. She said she would quit.

She was a belligerent shithead. I didn't start the conversation.

Told her I would not be back to the store.

Key text:

HIPAA only governs certain kinds of entities – your clinician, hospital, or others in the healthcare sphere. It does not apply to the average person or to a business outside healthcare. It doesn’t give someone personal protection against ever having to disclose their health information.

Institutions rarely have the right to require you get vaccinated, but if you want to work somewhere in particular, or want others to provide you services (such as schools, or businesses, or travel), they have the right to ask you to provide proof of vaccination first.

I'm going to love hearing the complaints from Libertarians and MAGAts!
