Let’s see you voluntarily give up your job first. |

Who quit because they wouldn’t get a Covid vaccine? List specific examples. |

Name one place where people were not allowed to decline based on exceptions as required by law (e.g., medical, religious, etc.)? |

You're talking about Germany, but there's literally a genocide going on in the middle east. If people need to quit their jobs, it's the ones working for military defense companies and companies that support genocide. Not the people in the NIH. |

The military. They also tried it on something like 2/3rds of workers but the courts eventually stopped it. People like to pretend that didn't happen... |

Here you go. What is more important are all the people who resentfully got the vaccine under duress. Those are the people who voted for Trump or didn't show up to vote for Harris. https://www.npr.org/2021/10/24/1047947268/covid-vaccine-workers-quitting-getting-fired-mandates https://www.npr.org/2021/10/07/1043332198/employer-vaccine-mandates-success-workers-get-shots-to-keep-jobs An NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll last week found that 50% of U.S. adults support employers requiring vaccination to return to in-person work, while 44% do not. The poll did not ask about government mandates for businesses. The vaccine mandate rule coming from the federal government, as opposed to being individually enforced, will shield many employers from facing the brunt of potential blowback, said employment lawyer Brett Coburn of firm Alston & Bird. "I'm sure there will be a lot of employers who chafe at this for a variety of reasons, but some employers I think may welcome it," he said. "It kind of takes it out of their hands to some extent to say, 'Sorry, OSHA said we have to do this and we have to follow what OSHA tells us.' "The CDC gives us guidelines. OSHA gives us rules. And that's a really important distinction," Coburn said, noting that he has seen a growing number of companies in the last month move toward vaccine requirements. |

It was widespread force and pressure. Remember Biden's patience "wearing thin" on unvaccinated Americans? A number of posters on this site said, so, no one owes you a job, go ahead and quit.
https://www.npr.org/2021/09/09/1035149651/biden-will-require-vaccines-for-federal-workers-as-part-of-a-new-covid-strategy Biden announced that 17 million health care workers at hospitals and other health care settings like dialysis clinics and home health agencies that receive Medicare or Medicaid funding will have to be vaccinated. There will be similar requirements for teachers and staff at the Head Start early education program and other federally funded educational settings, such as schools on military bases. |

Sports. After being denied a religious exemption, Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins reluctantly went for the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. "The only options [were] to get vaccinated or not play in the NBA," Wiggins said at a news conference, sharing that it was a tough decision. "Hopefully it works out in the long run, and in 10 years I'm still healthy." |

He’s still alive, isn’t he? Time to stop whining. |

As a healthcare worker, I generally did not have patience for those who worked in HEALTHCARE refusing vaccination. I also know those who refused were generally not providers, nurses, but the lower the clinical education level, the less likely to get vaccinated. Most likely were doctors, NPs/PAs, nurses (and ICU nurses were more likely than floor nurses); least likely were cleaning folks, transporters, cafeteria workers. |

| If you didn't have empathy for people who had the choice between compliance with a medical directive to have a vaccine injected into their body or quit a job and give up earned income needed by their families during a volatile recession... don't expect a lot of sympathy for yourself. |

Already did. Walked away from corporate marketing about a year ago because I could no longer stomach the lying, manipulation, carelessness with people's data, and enriching billionaires. |

EVERYONE needs to start thinking more deeply about the societal implications of the work they do, and stop letting the wealthy hold a gun to our heads in the form of unemployment and homelessness, believing we have no other choice than to aid them in their endless profit seeking at the expense of literally every else on this planet. We dont have to help them wage war. We dont have to help them destroy the environment. We dont have to help them enslave people in for profit prisons. We dont have to help them starve people for profit. You have agency, and the blood IS on your hands. |

| People equating Covid vaccines pressure with the dismantling of democracy and our system of law and order are NUTS. Not even in the same ballpark and your post-pandemic mania does not give you a free pass to be a jackass now. FFS you guys still braying about Covid vaccines are insane. |

How does doing basic research on a daily basis equate to blood on people’s hands. Huge leap there. |
