The man who sits in the oval office is not the president, the executives of of the pharmaceutical industry are. They want to sell vaccines. Between the three companies they expected to sell 330,000,000 million does of vaccine to the government, yet they've sold what, just over half that? This executive order was drafted in corporate boardrooms. All these guys know each other and are in business together. This is a turning point for our country. Will 80,000,000 to 100,000,000 Americans stand up for freedom, or will we say that we are really ok with, and gladly accept the fact that our country has become a fascist dictatorship where our personal lives, choices, and beliefs are fully controlled by large corporations who write the laws and allow you to have have the illusion of choosing a new dictator every four years. Hospitals and other health care facilities are already starting to face the reality of having more unvaccinated employees than they can possibly fire and still operate. There are significant percentages of the pilot groups in every airline that have also chosen to remain unvaccinated. If everyone continues to hold the line, no amount of wokeness or virtue signaling will change the reality that you can't fire significant percentages of your trained workforce in a short period of time and still operate at the same level. Plenty of employers and 21 states are already saying no to this mandate, so this will truly be where business leaders show if they believe in the freedom and personal liberty that allowed them to achieve the high levels of financial success they have, or do they believe in fascism, which has lead to nothing but ruin and misery for everyone involved and subjected to it.
Best of luck to the OP. I personally chose to get out of flying when covid started due to base realignments that would have caused commuting to create an unacceptably poor quality of life. I want to get back into flying as of now, but won't be taking a vaccine for a virus that I already had with mild symptoms, and that most people recover from the same way. There are plenty of those of us out there who agree with you, and if we all say enough is enough they'll be forced to deal with our existence whether they like it or not. Again, best of luck, we need more people such as yourself!
Also, here's something that you won't see on CNN and the fact checkers on social media would say is "missing context".
