It’s California but Blue Cross Blue Shield still going forward with requiring employees to get the shot despite court rulings. Here’s a copy of an internal letter:
Blue Cross Doubles Down
https://voxday.net/2021/12/16/mailvox-blue-cross-doubles-down/
Excerpt:
I’ve attached an internal email I received from the president/CEO of Blue Cross, stating they are still requiring employees to get the clot shot regardless of the mandate being halted. He states in the last paragraph the vaccines are “safe, effective, and FDA-approved.” I don’t know if this deceit is from sheer ignorance or pure malevolence. In the end, it doesn’t matter, the threat is still the same. To tell people the shots are FDA approved, knowing full well they are not, and to threaten them over it, has me enraged.
They denied a religious exemption. When I inquired about it, I received a form letter saying I didn’t match their criteria and there are no appeals. They ignored follow-up emails. I tried filing a complaint with EEOC, but they need an inquiry review first, and the earliest date was in Feb., a month after the termination date. I’ve tried filling an inquiry with the California chapter of Children’s Health Defense and have gotten no response.
The only thing I can think to do is attempt to shine a light on this evil. Maybe it can inspire others to stand up, and push back, file civil lawsuits against the man since he’s the one responsible for violating federal law.

BCBSM will move ahead with our vaccination requirements
As you may have read in the news, a Federal District Court judge in Georgia has issued a nationwide injunction requiring the federal government to stop all actions to enforce the federal contractor vaccine mandate. This ruling is a step in a legal process that undoubtedly will continue to play out in the federal courts over coming weeks and months.
The ruling, regardless of its effect on federal enforcement efforts, will not affect BCBSM and our subsidiaries from moving forward to implement our previously announced policy requiring employees to be fully vaccinated by Jan. 4.
BCBSM has a legal right, as an employer, to issue policies protecting the health and safety of our workforce, including requiring employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19. As such, we are within our legal authority to continue with enforcement of our policy over the coming weeks.
As our Chief Medical Officer, Dr. James Grant, and I have stated many times before, the safe, effective, and FDA-approved vaccines available to us now are the single best way for us, our colleagues, families, and communities to defeat COVID-19 and return BCBSM and our enterprise companies to a normal state of business operations. As a health care organization – committed to enriching, extending, and saving lives – we believe promoting vaccinations that have proven to save lives is the right course to take.

GHISLAINE UPDATE
So 2-3 days of arguments for the defense. This is over. Watch what happens next. All those that were saying “nothingburger” & “she’s going to get off” are going to be shocked. The defense cannot even locate witnesses to testify on her behalf because no anonymity was given! Ghislaine faces a 80 year sentence. If she gets sentenced to anything over 20+ she’s looking at dying in prison. She will sing to make deals.
James Loepp probably makes over $10.0Million per year and could care less what happens to his employees. His way or the highway. He is a disgrace as a CEO.
Biden White House Offers Bonuses for Doctors Who Mandate ‘Anti-Racism Plans’
Excerpt:
The directive was issued under new rules from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), which aim to update Medicare in order to “reflect changes in medical practice.” As of January 1st, doctors involved in Medicare can increase reimbursement rates by holding “clinic-wide reviews” of their facilities’ “commitment to anti-racism.” HHS notes that, in such surveys, race must be defined as “a political and social construct, not a physiological one.”
“It is important,” the new rules read, “to acknowledge systemic racism as a root cause for differences in health outcomes between socially-defined racial groups.”
....The new race-based incentives will alter Medicare’s Merit-Based Incentive Payment System, the metric by which eligible doctors’ reimbursement rates are determined. This system was first implemented by Congress in 2015, and originally intended to reward medical professionals who provided the highest-quality and most cost-effective medical care. But this new “equity”-based system will shift the focus away from merit in favor of ideological conformity.
These new changes have already faced criticism from those who crafted the original 2015 system. Chris Pope, a scholar with the Manhattan Institute who, as a Hill fellow in 2015, helped draft the original legislation, pointed out that the original system was approved with bipartisan support. By contrast, the revisions are being done unilaterally, without the consent of Congress.
“Republicans who voted for it weren’t voting for this,” said Pope. “The idea that this would be used as a tool of racial policy never came up.”

If any of your doctors are liberals or demo-fascists they will more than likely be adopting this ideologically racist medical policy.
