Attorney Rogge Dunn, longtime labor attorney with the Rogge Dunn Group of Dallas, said it is perfectly legal for an employer to require employees to get a vaccine.
“There are two exceptions," he said. "One is a sincerely held religious belief and two is if someone has a disability such that they would have an adverse reaction to a vaccine."
Dunn said employers can fire someone for not getting the COVID shot if those exceptions aren’t met.
He points to the case of more than 100 workers at Houston Methodist who sued over the hospital’s COVID vaccine mandate.
“They lost,” he said.

Your religious beliefs, traditions, and practice can change.
It’s called conversion.

I’m pro-vax, but I must reserve the basic human right to control what is put into my body and I know that others must also have the full ability to do so too.
Since 99%+ of the people dying of Covid now are unvaccinated, persuasion by reasoning alone is possible and is the proper way forward.
The media can make it well know that Trump, Pence, Biden, Harris, Pelosi and her House Democratic teammates and Schumer and his Senate Democratic teammates are all fully vaccinated. 100%.
Professional ballplayers and community leaders can appear on TV to persuade minority holdouts.

Vaccines, maybe. Emergency Use Authorization drugs, not so much.

“How does one define “sincerely held”, “religious belief”, “disability” “
Easy. You would have to prove you regularly attended, and are a member of a church that doesn’t believe in shots.

Pay more attention to the latest CDC pronouncements.
It appears they have given up on the concept of herd immunity and have also given up on the concept of the vaccine providing immunity.
They want everyone to take the vaccine because....uh....uh...uh.....because they order you to...
At this point I am more likely to die in an automobile accident than die from Coronavirus.
Don’t tell the CDC—they will try to ban automobiles!

This will never happen. NO WAY they tie jab to welfare benefits, too many POC’s and that’s their protected group. Now if you are a working class white, you’re doomed. For me, the more I keep reading about the not-vax, the more convinced that it’s junk/poison. I believe it’s coming down to misery loves company, all these sheep will demand we all get it. I won’t and please fire me.

I remember the mass layoffs of Aerospace engineers after the US space program wound down. It spawned many new successful technology ventures. Talented but unemployed people created exciting new businesses, and hired other talented but unemployed people. It was a painful process, though.

From the Pfizer Patient Consent Form:
“ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS (INITIAL EACH STATEMENT):
....
The recipient or their caregiver has the option to accept or refuse Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine.”
http://www.co.fannin.tx.us/upload/page/10318/docs/Pfizer/Pfizer%20Consent%20Form%20-%20Fillable.pdf
Refuseniks can not get the vaccine without committing fraud.
No employer can require any person to commit fraud.
I’m pro-vax, but I must reserve the basic human right to control what is put into my body and I know that others must also have the full ability to do so too.

I sincerely believe God gave me an immune system. Agreed! And I keep mine in tip top shape.

“Receiving the vaccine is participating in abortion.”
That is my take as well. I have come to the conclusion that this is my hill.

So much for you medical privacy. I would think that since the Supremes found a right to privacy in the preamble of the Constitution in order to rule in favor of Roe, that we can use that same ruling for our privacy.

Of course, once the FDA approves one of these vaccines, the whole playing field changes. Pfizer has applied for accelerated approval by January 2022. Probably a date to watch.

Same here. I take vitamin C, D3, Zinc and Quercetin.
I workout 4 or 5 times a week, meditate, and get plenty of sleep.
If that’s not enough, oh well.

🚨💉IMPORTANT VACCINE RELIGIOUS EXEMPTION DOCUMENTS
Here is a link to the files necessary for constructing an air tight religious exemption request for the COVID vaccine if it is mandatory for you: https://news.gab.com/2021/07/29/important-download-covid-vaccine-religious-exemption-documents-here/
"The Vaccine Exemption Documents here are divided according to what you may require in order to submit a personalized exemption request to your school or work. I have included each form in a word document, and a PDF, depending on which it is that someone needs, can edit, or wants to submit."
"The Full Document is everything necessary for a US Army Soldier to submit a religious exemption request to his immediate commander, with only certain portions needing to be edited to include your name, unit, and details."
"The "Religious + Practical Side Supporting Documents" is all the details giving both the religious reasons for why Orthodox Christians cannot receive the Vaccine, and the practical reasons for why it isn't actually necessary to receive the Vaccine. This is all without the military related documents or information, so that it can be customized for your school or your workplace if either are mandating the Vaccine."
"The Religious and Practical Side Supporting Documents are also separated in case you specifically need either one without the other.""
God be with ye.
Kaleb of Atlanta

BS. I got mine when I was about 3 years old. I don’t recall comprehension or any say in the matter.
