My employer has also walked back parts of the vaccine mandate. W/O an APPROVED religious or medical mandate, ‘refusers’ CAN take rapid tests, at their own expense.
I believe that this is merely a slight setback to the powers of tyranny. They realize that they have over stepped and are pulling back a SMALL bit. It is however, going to continue. Too many politicians have bought into the agenda, and will lose their positions, if the truth is revealed.
So far, my employer has made no mention of mandates, but strongly encouraged them.
