I’m excited but terrified. I’m a risk adverse people pleaser so It’s hard not to think of the repercussions that could happen. It means fatpony and my employer would be part of the required group and I am very pleased to think of my one unvaxxed coworker being forced to get it. I get what you're saying though. It certainly could get ugly in some places. I think I have passed the point of caring though. I can't wait for all those idiots who post on the staff blog to lose their shit.

It will be interesting to see if people opt for the testing instead of the shot. To me, if you refuse to get vaccinated after your employer requires it, you should have to pay for the tests too. But I’m just feeling very vindictive so it’s good I’m not in charge lol.

I'm assuming that it wouldn't be free testing since its not because of symptoms or exposure. Pay up bitches.

Maybe that would piss them off enough to get vaxxed. Those refusing should have to pay for all the testing they're causing.

Greg Abbott is tweeting about how the vaccination requirements are an assault on private business and Texans have a right to choose.

Now he’s worried about right to choose?! Just his own. I am happy Biden finally put out some much needed mandates but I don’t have much hope they will be enforced here. Or anywhere in the south.

There have been absolutely zero updates of substance since the alert went out 90 min ago. I don't know if that's good or bad

1. Increase vax rates. FDA has approved removing that argument. Not about freedoms or personal choice. It’s about protecting those you love and work with. 100+ employee employers need to vax or show negative test 1x/week. Shade to Fox News who requires vax. Thank you for your very detailed recap. I really appreciate it since I wasn’t able to listen.

In a surprise to no one the governor SC has vowed to fight the vax mandates to the ‘gates of hell’. Already seeking Home court advantage. 🤦🏻♀️.

Maybe that would piss them off enough to get vaxxed. Those refusing should have to pay for all the testing they're causing. I feel like if they have to sign off to, at least, acknowledge the charges, that would help. Have the same feelings about those opposed to universal healthcare. If people had to write that check monthly, they would realize how much they are actually paying, instead of the once at sign up time. Am also awaiting the surcharges that insurance companies will require for non-vax, just like smokers.

Anyone else googling their antivax friends' or relatives' companies to see how many people they employ?

One of my idiot brothers has fallen into the Joe Rogan cult experience. He told me that if a vaccine was required, he'd just find a new job. He's in finance. Good luck with that bro. 😈
