White House Says Calling Administration's Vaccine Requirement a 'Mandate' is 'Misinformation'

White House Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Friday that it is "misinformation" to use the term "vaccine mandate" when referring to the Biden administration's "vaccine requirement" for private companies, which states that employers with at least 100 employees must require their workers to get vaccinated or undergo weekly coronavirus testing.

The policy, along with two other Biden vaccine mandates that will impact federal contractors and about 17 million health care workers, is scheduled to take effect Jan. 4. Certain medical and religious exemptions will be granted.

There is a Dec. 8 compliance deadline for workers employed directly by the federal government.

Lawsuits from a number of private businesses and GOP-led states have been filed in response to the administration's vaccine mandates for businesses and federal contract workers.

"As for the legal side of this, let me be crystal clear to avoid what appears to be possible misinformation or disinformation around the emergency temporary standard being a ‘vaccine mandate.’ That would be on its face incorrect," Jean-Pierre said at Friday's White House press briefing.

I’m just a realist and deal with the options set before me. But lawsuits are just beginning. It will take a while for them to work through the system—I advise the unvaxxed to hold out as long as possible, and request a religious exemption. Kaiser is approving them I hear.

But I want to go to Canada next summer, and to England next fall. I don’t think other countries who have vax requirements of travelers are entertaining exemption requests from Americans.

Reasons for getting vaxxed are many, and can be (sadly) merely practical (not medical).

I’ve also met someone in my area who is using a fake vax card to get into restaurants (in the SF Bay Area). I’ve noticed that 90% of restaurants in my area are ignoring the mandate anyway.

Employers will allow exemptions I think. Cal State approved half of their students’ exemption requests.

My son applied for his. Actually he claimed it. They have given preliminary “approval”

A friend owns a small government contracting firm, he’s basically told his employees he’ll approve any exception claim.

It all depends what the meaning of the word ‘is’, is.

😨😲😏 Watching the “Impeachment” story produced by Monica. Re-affirmation of the low life pigs the “progressives” are. Apologies to the porcine community.

And I thought she was going to be an improvement over Psaki. Same old tired playbook. Amazing how some people will give up principles for a paycheck.

At the end of the emergency temporary "standard" can people get un-vacinated?

No?

Then it is a V-A-C-C-I-N-E. M-A-N-D-A-T-E.

Fast forward to bout 43:15 point
Some Van Ranst guy hoaxed Belgium a few years back with this COVID playbook.
He then went to a conference to describe what he did and his amazing success

Don’t call it a “reduction”, the chocolate ration has just been increased from 20 to 15 grams a month.
