The Supremes just released their ruling on vaccine mandates. I think (the story on Fox TV was garbled) that they struck down the Biden administration requirement for employers of more than 100 workers to fire all the employees who refused to get themselves vaccinated. And they upheld to requirement that health care workers must get vaccinated. The justices said the reason to uphold the health care workers was because of federal funding that seeps thru out the medical business, starting with Medicaid and working down. That may be a legal argument. Personally I believe health care workers ought to be vaccinated because in the ordinary course of their work they come in contact with patients who have Corona virus and they catch it from them. Then they spread it to other patients in the facility they work in.
As far as vaccine mandates for ordinary (non health care) businesses, I don’t care if they are vaccinated or not. I am vaccinated and from what I hear, the vaccines work and I won’t catch it even working hand in glove with someone who is not vaccinated. It’s a free country; let the citizens do what they want to do. If you personally fear being infected with Corona virus, go get yourself vaccinated.
