“Exceptions for the vaccine mandate will be made for workers who seek a medical or religious exemption”…
Why is there not a “Free will” exception? Why can everyone not be responsible for them self?…make choices for them self? And no, this does not fall into the choice category [Take this questionable vaccine for the Flu or lose your job]…..
Mob rule, not freedom
