No thank you. I have had adverse reactions to every vaccine I have received over the last 40 years. I told them that.
I was forced to take 2 of these things. I now have high blood pressure. Thank you very much. 110lbs. Never above 120/80 at the highest. Now runs 180/120. On blood pressure medication now.
Husband. Same. Forced to take 2 of the injections. Now has an egg allergy. Never in his 50 years has he EVER been allergic to eggs. He is now.
They can take these vaccines that are not actual vaccines and shove them up their own arse. No more for my family. Too many people I know have been harmed......or died from these things.

It's all about control, and President failed to make it mandatory because the vaccines and boosters were all approved for "emergency use" The only people who should have lost their job are those in the military. If you lost your job in the private sector, sue your employer.
Maybe Dr. SaltyDog can explain why even the latest jab available is approved for "emergency use" and not fully approved by the FDA.

Now look at this from yesterday.
September 11, 2023
Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration took action approving and authorizing for emergency use updated COVID-19 vaccines formulated to more closely target currently circulating variants and to provide better protection against serious consequences of COVID-19, including hospitalization and death.

Whatever, slacker moron. I stand by my comment, an employer can't/isn't going to force an employee to take a drug that's not fully approved by the FDA. And if they were stupid enough to fire someone, the fired employee has a solid case for suing their employer. Furthermore, if they did and the person was injured by the drug, they would have even more liability to sue for. But keep on reaching because you have nothing else to argue about on this subject, so you turn it into a labor issue.

But you have taken a position, and your position is Republican.
