SUPREME COURT STRIKES DOWN OSHA VACCINE MANDATE
BREAKING: The Supreme Court BLOCKS the federal government's COVID-19 vaccine-or-test requirement for large workplaces. The court ALLOWS a vaccine mandate for workers at federally funded health care facilities to take effect nationwide.— SCOTUSblog (@SCOTUSblog) January 13, 2022
Blanket statements much? Definitely not the case for “every health care worker”. Nor has there been a mandate for every health care worker to have annual flu shots in order to work. Perhaps in your circle... but absolutely not for everyone.
nope. any hospital that accepts medicare and medicaid patients is included under cms rules
Thomas dissented, joined by Alito, Gorsuch, and Coney Barrett.
Alito penned a separate dissent as well. This was joined by Thomas, Gorsuch, and Coney Barrett.
My mistake earlier on “7-2,” is a 5-4 decision. Roberts and Kavanaugh joined the liberals.
"Kaiser Permanente is a recipient of federal funds. As such, all Contracted Providers and hospitals must agree to comply with all rules and regulations that applicable to federal contracts."

The way that is written, sure seems like there might be some parts of Kaiser that this mandate might not apply to.
No, he’s correct. These rulings are on temporary status imposed by the courts. The courts decision on the merits is yet to come.
Pedo Roberts and crybaby Kavanaugh
what health care facilities are not infected with the federal taint?
is it time to ditch all of the “we support our health care heroes” signs yet?
Yes. When enough people resist.
This isn’t a victim. It’s a horrific violation of the constitution. All mandates should have been thrown out. I don’t consider this even a slight victory. They are unbound by law.
“this isn’t a VICTORY”
They'll just import more in from The Philippines.
I think the cost and time involved trying to implement the mandate was why it was rejected.
Now what about the Biden Federal contractor mandate? I was terminated last week after 14 years of working for the company.
in any cms facility in colorado annual flu shots are mandated. air proof of vaccination is it received by the specified date you privileges are suspended until flu season is over Proof of vaccination stickers are placed on your ID when the documentation is provided. Every practitioner I know in other states has the same requirement. period. Which health care facility do you work in where this is not mandated?
Good for her! I wish her all the success in her chosen, mandate-free profession!
Thank you.
“it only involves health care workers and facilities where the Federal government is the contracting agent (not just a regulatory authority)”
A distinction without a difference, since the feds already infiltrated the entire industry with the tentacles of Medicare and Medicaid.
Well that settles this until the next bio weapon is released by Fauci the demonic Jesuit.
It’s worth reading the dissent in the workplace mandate case. It’s a purely political statement, not even an attempt to cloak it in any legal reasoning.
Unlikely.
Our system is at 96% vaxxed, as most are. Losing 4% is going to hurt (if they really quit)+, but not enough to precipitate collapse.
=================================================
If the situation remains static and all those people remain as believers that the injections are doing what they are supposed to be doing (and not getting breakthrough covid).
Do you have faith that the 96% who were injected, will go along with the mandate to get re-injected every 4 to 6 months in order to stay "fully vaccinated" and therefore employed?
My bet is on, no. We will see a sharp decline in those already injected, who are willing to remain on the quarterly injection subscription plan.
