Idk it seems like those last two lines kinda cover em. I don't think the ADA is quite as broad as a lot of people think. Not getting vaccinated probably isn't going to fly as a disability. Certainly worth a shot. I'd like to note that I'm not against you in any way - I have not and will not be getting any of the covid shots. I'm also trying to be realistic in my expectations tho
Editing to provide an extra thought - its kinda always been a thing for public schools and stuff to demand that your child have certain vaccinations in order to attend. Employers have also been allowed to drug test their employees if they choose. I'm all for freedom, and that includes businesses being free to impose whatever nonsense they like. The market tends to weed this type of bullshit out on its own.
The elephant in the room is that these injections are still experimental. Forcing someone to participate in a medical experiment in order to participate in society seems pretty shaky. Especially with the Nuremburg code and all that. The very first part of which states the following:
The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential.
This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision.
Of course, the EU is now pushing to abolish that particularly inconvenient piece of law.
Yeah, I agree. The fact that's still only being used per EUA makes the whole thing really fucking crazy. I've heard they're thinking they'll have at least one of these vaccines fda-appeoved in a more traditional sense within the year. Kinda makes you wonder if they're just holding out for that - bc all the proposed vax mandates have sorta been half measures so far. Lot of talk with nothing actually backing it yet.
What if they get their traditional approvals, and all of it is no longer considered emergency use, or experimental?
I'm not sure they can do that in any reasonable amount of time due to the requirements for determining long term effects. I think phase 4 testing takes something like 10 years. Who knows, they're changing laws like crazy right now in order to ram this stuff through. The fact that the EU is trying to end the Nuremburg code is terrifying.
