Testing is an option per the federal OSHA mandate for private employers.

But it doesn't mean the company *has* to allow it as an option (UAL did not).

The only people that are going to make out in this are the lawyers. The litigation from all this is
going to be drawn out longer than the pandemic will be around. The vaccine mandates will probably stay while they work their way through the slow legal processes all while some of the pharma companies are about to release results from their trials on the antiviral pills they made to neutralize the Covid virus after you’ve been infected. Some say they’ll be available under a EUA program before the end of the year. That way when all the anti covid Vaxxers catch it they have something else “experimental” to give them when they are begging doctors to save them.

Exactly this. Because all of the unvaccinated who get infected end up in the hospital without exception, while the vaccinated catch it and simply sit at home with minor symptoms. This is the way it works 100% of the time.

Anyone who disagrees is peddling a mass conspiracy and needs to be re-educated.

Not all unvaccinated end up on a ventilator. But all who do beg for the vaccine.

What about all those who have had it? Only had minor symptoms and just sat at home and have strong anti-bodies in their system? I fall into that category. Not anti-vax by any means just feel like a mandate for a vaccine is strange when you contract it anyways inoculated or not and the fact when you do/did contract Covid have mild to no symptoms. I’m sure I’ll get blasted for this but oh well. God forbid you say herd immunity and be labeled a conspiracy theorist.

I’m all for herd immunity, from what I’ve read it’s probably better to get and recover from the virus than the vaccine in terms of long term immunity, but I’m also all for trying to do everything I can to protect myself and my family.

I think that’s a really fair question to ask. Here’s what the CDC says...

Would be nice if the fed were to develop a protocol to grant natural immunity passports. It would take some formal trial work to confirm what already *appears* to be the case, but I don't sense much interest in that in fed-land. Maybe write your congress critters?

No, this is not how it works 100% of the time. I personally know several vaccinated persons that suffered symptoms that required medical attention. Myself included. My vaccinated wife ended up in the ER and still sleeps with supplemental oxygen.
Anyone that believes that these vaccines are 100% protection are gullible and ignorant of the truth.
