Disney and Walmart, two of America's largest employers, announced Friday that they are requiring employees be vaccinated.

Disney (DIS) is requiring all its salaried and non-union hourly employees in the US to be vaccinated. Workers who are working on-site but are not yet vaccinated must do so within the next 60 days, according to a statement from the company to CNN Business. All new hires must be fully vaccinated before beginning their jobs. As part of its push for vaccination, the company is offering employees the chance to get vaccinated while on the clock and up to three days paid leave for any reaction to the shot.

In an earlier Friday memo, Walmart announced that all employees are required to wear masks inside again, regardless of vaccination status, in places with “substantial or high transmission.” The new policy is effective immediately, the nation’s largest retailer said Friday.

Store managers will receive local updates every Monday to determine their facility’s necessary protocol. Customers will not be required to wear masks, but they will be strongly encouraged, and facilities will post signs to remind them of the CDC’s new guidelines.

While Walmart is not mandating that its store employees get vaccinated, it will soon implement a new process to verify their vaccine status, and is strongly encouraging workers to get vaccinated.

Walmart will fill up all their vacancies from quitting no-vax employees with illegal aliens. Since all their paperwork will be false anyway, their vaccine passport will also be false.

Doesn’t the Constitution protect ‘freedom of the person’?

What about, ‘My body, my choice.’?

If I know most Walmart employees, they’ll be just thrilled about this. And they’ll all take the 3 days leave for their “reaction.”

Disney World can hardly run operations with the number of park employees they can get to come to work. If they lose another 10 - 25% then the parks would have to under serve the guests and that's a big no-no in DWorld.

Call their bluff!

It’s one way to reduce the staff to replace them with machines.

You got it.

I’m here at DWorld typing this. The shuttle bus drivers say they haven’t gotten everyone needed back to work.
