Sadly there will be some, maybe even many, that now have to chose between the vaccine & their school or place of employment. Quite a few more colleges, school districts, & even some of the biggest employers in the nation that will be feeling better about mandating that their students & employees be vaccinated now IMO.

Interesting, at U of M, students are required to be vaccinated, but not faculty.  Hmmm.  What do PhDs know that a bunch of sniveling-nosed undergrads don't.   :scratch:

I seem to be in the minority here. I think everyone who is able should get the shot.  Current hospitalization stats make a very convincing point.  Last reports indicate that 98% of hospitalized Covid cases are people who were NOT vaccinated.

When you listen to politicians instead of every top doctor in the world you have very skewed info.  It is obvious after reading you guys posts.  Really???   You guys are my friends and whatever you do you do.  BUT I sure hope politicians drivel does not have 1% to do with your decisions.  AND the U info says you are right about the students.  It also says Staff must report their status.  It does not say Staff does not need vacs.  Just so you know.

 Just too much info and opinions hittin' from everywhere out there. I read just a few top good sources like Mayo, and the CDC,  then used my own judgement as to whether or not I wanted one. I'd had so many reactions to the flu shot, and others, I was just gonna skip it. I stopped listening to all of the opinions and told myself if the time was right, I'd do what I felt was right FOR ME. Then Mom got it. That made up my mind. Haveta do what's right for YOU, and turn off all the incoming flak.

There is no way I would allow a brain dead politician from either party have anything to do with my choice.  Would you trust them with your checkbook?  ?????   Politics had absolutely nothing to do with us getting shots and sure as hell better not have anything to do with youse guys decisions neither.  They could care less about you as long as they keep getting fed well.  Don't forget that neither!

Now that Pfizer is FDA approved, where it the laundry list of side effects that you see for every other drug ad on TV?   :confused:

Where is the legal accountability and financial liability?   :scratch:

No, wait, is there a loophole?  If the government enforces mandates, the drug companies don't have to run ads, and so they don't have to publish legal disclaimers?
:mad1:

So far everyone has been signing legal waivers before receiving the emergency use authorized vaccines.  Will this still be the norm now that the drugs are becoming FDA approved?

This is exactly right Barry. Unfortunately the politicians are trying to make the choice for everyone. There is no science behind it.

Just hoping for transparency, but in the interest of fairness, here is the CDC site which reports on "selected" adverse events associated with the vaccine.  And if you have an adverse event after receiving the vaccine, there is a website you can go to and report your experience.

Selected Adverse Events Reported after COVID-19 Vaccination

vaers.hhs.gov:  Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System

But mine is off topic....!! Job stuff!  :rotflmao:

I applied for a few jobs online, thought I'd at least try to work a few hours part-time, even though it'll have to be a sitting position. Need some extra cash.
Not one single call back...so how bad is it really? Maybe they don't want people with college degrees and other assorted degrees..... :rolleyes:

So explain the difference between "approved" and "endorsed",I smell a dead fish here...FDA has not endorsed  this vaccine.From some sniffing around I've read it takes years to get FDA to endorse a medical vaccine. Sure seems these politicans are holding the FDA's feet to the fire on this one.

so, i got a question for the people that wont get the vacine and/or are against it.

i'm not judging anyone, dont want the shot, your choice, got that shot, again your choice........but WHAT IF.......... your place of employment requires you to get it as a requirement of employment?????  :doah: any thoughts on what you may do????

with doofus as prez and the idiot we have for a the so called leader of this state its gonna happen depending on the employer i'm afraid!!!!

they said on the news last night that minnesota has no law on the books that allows the state to make mandates like this illegal!!!

i agree, but an employer also is required to to provide a safe work place...........unfortunelty that vacine/requiremnt  falls in line with that.

i dont not agree with it!!!!!!!

Haveta have the shot if ya work at Mayo. Just like they made ya get the flu shot when I worked there if ya had any patient contact, which we did. I was able to opt out after reactions to it, but they really made it rough on others that didn't get it. Don't believe that "other options/choice" crap they spew out to the news.
Ask my buddy who is section head of Logitics, and does all the COVID stuff...supplies, vaccine, vaccine sites, emergency mgmnt, etc. You don't get one, you'll be outta there somehowor wish you were. Saw it time and again internally.

First off I will cross that bridge when it comes. But more than likely I will be joining those on the unemployment line. I feel that strongly about it. May have to move to a state that stands up for it's citizens rights. It is already happening to to my sister in law and my brother in law's wife. ! works for the DNR and the other is a PA for Sanford.
