My Company Requiring Vaccine (Update at post 382)
8/9/21 | stevio

Posted on 08/09/2021 6:39:30 PM PDT by stevio

I'm contracting for a "high-tech" company who is now mandating all employees and contractors get the jab. Not sure how I'm going to fight this, but it's interesting that the military has issued a similar statement today. This is where my rubber meets the road. Advice from you all is welcome except for the "just get another job".

Can you tell me as well! I live in Washington State and the hammer just dropped.

I was just thinking, too, that finding another job shouldn’t be that hard.

Everywhere I go I see signs begging people to work for them.

The lowest pay now is $15/hour.

That might be an out if you can convince someone that the goal of a vaccine is immunity and that if you’re already immune from a bout of the virus, you should not need the vax.

That immunity is not even being discussed should be the flashing red light that the goal here may be something other than protection against the Wuhan flu.

Odd that he calls himself a contractor yet says “my company”.

Probably the same situation as my wife had. Working at a nursing home full time but for a different company than the nursing home. Gibbs Care Center was the place and Health Care Services Group was who she worked for. The latter handled laundry, housekeeping and kitchen staff with the former handling admin and nursing staff.

Still makes him an employee, just for a company other than the local concern. The company my wife worked for, Health Care Services Group, provided services for small nursing homes all over the country. She got bi-weekly paychecks and a W2 from them. I was self employed once and had to fill out 1099s and received W9s at the end of the year. That’s a contractor.

I know. They have a lot of work and can’t find qualified people.

What's your skillset?

I'm heavy .NET and SQL, Informatica and Dynatrace and Azure devops and so on.

I activated my Linked In again recently and got 300+ responses and interogatories.

FYI. There is a “traditional” Covid vaccine supposedly coming out at the end of the year (Novavax). It will be like the annual flu vax. (I’ve never had a flu vaccination.)

I might consider that one but I refuse to take the MRNA experiment shot.

My response to anyone forcing me to get the vax:. “When the borders are secure, I will get the shot”.

God help us. This is downright scary.

Refuse and see what happens.
(Of course it's easy for me to say, armchair QB and all that.)
You have my sympathy.

The right to say NO is the basis for all other rights.

Its a vaccine. I know more about platelets and platelet counts than you ever will. Forty years as a medical technologist.


Only....it is NOT just ‘a vaccine’.

And, big whoop that you’re a technogist...and, one who evilly wishes the Delta variant on the smart un-”vax”d.

From an excellent speech, to a school board, by a REAL doc (not the ones who play doc, anonymously, on a chat forum).....

Dr. Dan Stock of Indiana addresses the Mount Vernon Community School Corporation....

“....That is why you keep struggling with this because you cannot make these viruses go away. The natural history of all respiratory viruses is that they circulate all year long, waiting for the immune system to get sick through the winter, or become deranged, as has happened recently with these vaccines, and then they cause symptomatic disease.

Because they cannot be filtered out, and because they have animal reservoirs, and this is a very important point, no one can make this virus go away.

The CDC has managed to convince everybody that we can handle this like we did smallpox, where we could make a virus go away. Smallpox had no animal reservoirs; the only thing it learned to infect was humans. That’s why we were able to make that virus go away.

That will not happen with this, any more than it will with influenza, the common cold, respiratory syncytial virus, adnoviral respiratory syndromes, or any thing else that has animal reservoires.

So the reason you can’t do this is because you’re trying to do something that’s already been tried and can’t be done....”

I worked in biotech and research for 15 years.

I trust the scientists behind the Moderna
vaccine.

Its coming so you may as well accept the fact that without it, you won’t be flying anywhere, attending a concert or theatre, and lots more.

And it is not going to hurt you no matter what the fruitcake “doctors” are telling you on obscure websites.

I really encourage people to read a college level biochem text.

If they come for our guns, I am right next to you.
But to resist this vaccine and believe all this horsesh*t just makes people here look ignorant.

Covid can kill you or make you dependent on oxygen for the rest of your life, perhaps. The delta variant is more potent.
Why take that chance?

Agreed about the lawyer in employment law.

You want someone mean, tough, with a serious dgaf attitude, that takes no prisoners and plays to win.

Additional attributes—pounds the table, screams and yells, and points fingers at the bad guys.

Intimidation wins—being polite loses.

According to VAERS data adverse effects are ay 0.002%

And that number should be believed, why?

Yep. We can handle this like smallpox. And it did come from animals, btw.
Dr Dan is none too bright, apparently.

Do you always live in this much fear?
There are drugs available that can help you with anxiety.

I don't live in any kind of fear at all, although it sounds as if you had a fear of Covid that drove you to get the shot. (Had you yourself tried taking any of those drugs that can help you with anxiety? How did they work out?)

My pandemic ended last year. (If I approach an establishment that requires a mask, then I'll mask up if I need to be there; otherwise, I'll go somewhere else.)

You chastise someone for living in fear and then use fear to coerce them into doing something you want them to do that they don’t want to.

How hypocritical.

People wouldn’t be living in fear if people like you weren’t trying to terrorize them into taking an experimental treatment by pushing your fearporn narrative.

Why even take an EXPERIMENTAL ‘vax’ for something that is 99.9% survivable??

You cannot ‘vax’ corona viruses. It’s never been done. These cv viruses have been in existence for a loooooong time.

You mentioned that you’ve never taken a flu vax.

Do you take a vax for the cold?

No. Because there cannot be one. Same with cv’s.

Besides....flu vaxxes are NEVER 100%....not even, typically, the current year strain roaming around.

NATURAL immunity is always best.

Take care.
