They fired her for being pregnant. She's going to get paid.

Source article says she and her husband wanted to get pregnant, not that she is. She's concerned about fertility issues and wanted to wait to vaccinate because of how rushed the vax is. She got fired because she didn't want to risk sterilizing herself right before she and her husband started trying for their first child.

Equal Employment Opportunity Commission already said months ago that employers are allowed to do this.

Odd since the vaccine hasn't been shown to prevent transmission, only symptoms. So at worst the employer would be avoiding an employee calling out sick for a week. It has no bearing on workplace safety.

Agreed. It makes no sense to force the vaccine on anyone because of that fact it doesn't stop the spread.

The excuse is that ICUs can still get overrun by people showing extreme symptoms and prevebt others from getting treatment for other problems. The problem with that idea is that normal people mostly don't get hospitalized for the virus in the first place, so that excuse is bunk too but they'll never admit it.

Vaccine makes a ton of sense for high risk individuals, like the elderly or those with underlying health issues. If you vaccinate those, you cut the mortality rate by 90% and it's no worse than the seasonal flu.

Well then we should crowd fund a lawsuit against the equal opportunity commission.

She needs a lawyer. She will own that restaurant if she sues.

The organizations that make the employment rules already gave permission months ago for businesses etc to fire employees if they refuse to get vaccinated after the company orders it. The source article says that and I wasn't aware of it until this case popped up.

I'm no lawyer, but I imagine this wouldn't hold up in court.

If I remember one of the Judge Judy cases right, if a woman is sufficiently pregnant, then they could be considered 'disabled' in a sense legally. I'm not sure if this applies in NYC. If it did, then this means business in NYC business could be sued for discrimination against disability.

She isn't pregnant, but she said she and her husband wanted to be soon. She's concerned about fertility issues and her boss fired her anyway. It's all perfectly legal too, which is BS.

I just had an idea. This is New York, right? So anyone choose any gender any idea yada yada. HE wants to get pregnant. They were concerned that HE wouldn't get pregnant AS WELL as her.

Ill pass. They can pay my unemployment.

That or after the idiots who take it end up with massive health issues they can hire me back at 2x the original wage.

That's the way! The thing that sucks is theatres (movie and live), sport arenas, concert venues, airlines, and others have said they won't allow anyone to use their facilities or services without proof of vaccination. And I've even heard restuarant owners and bar owners say it too. So who knows where it will end. Will we be allowed to buy groceries or gas without one? There won't be much to do and I guess I'll be confined to driving to my place in Florida if that actually happens.

Sports have cucked, dont need em.

Grocery store chains can get replaced with mom and pops.

Airlines can get fucked too, they all get destroyed by newcomers anyways because the newcomers arent burdened by pensions and debt.

Nope. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission already said employers can do this. Source article states it. She also sais she doesn't want to sue and is reconsidering her position because of the reaction.

This is how the government will get around it not being legal for them to make vaccination mandatory, it'll be left up to businesses and schools to do it.

We all called this last spring. It was never going to be required by government directly, it was going to be through businesses/schools themselves or the government requiring businesses/schools to require it.

Print off a CDC card and fabricate it if they make you.

It's not mandatory. You're just fired.
You have free speech, you'll just be cancelled. You can voice you like your white skin, you'll just be racist.

"That's just the free market" say people who are ignoring the fact that the health department isn't giving private businesses a choice, so even though it's not actual legislation it's still a tightly-regulated government market (which is exactly how the socialists want it.)

Indonesia to Punish Those Who Refuse to Take Covid-19 Vaccine

Indonesia's capital Jakarta is threatening residents with fines of up to 5 million rupiah

Who has 5 million rupiah in their wallet?

Indonesia has secured nearly 330 million vaccine doses from China's Sinovac, AstraZeneca and Novavax

Yep. The masks were a test case. They saw how well masks were pushed on people. Those same tactics will be used to enforce the vaccine.
