What will you complain about when vaccine mandates are lifted?
The rigged election
Similar to how I prefer Coke over Pepsi, GT 2 prefers to catch the Covid from vaccinated versus unvaccinated. 🥸
Those who didn’t vaccinate (not speaking to those who have medical challenges) should thank those who did otherwise it would be like China now back into full lockdown. Thanks to all those who were selfless enough to protect others. Other countries wear masks when someone has a cold primarily to protect others and we here complain like crazy. I’m not a sheep, come from a long line in the medical field along with friends in the medical industry. Not political either- lean toward Republican. I have friends who legitimately need heard immunity due to their own medical situation. We all do it to protect those individuals. Everything has a risk in life and nothing is absolute. I respect that you e have a choice here but when push comes to shove don’t expect others to do for you should you get sick or need the community to support you.
🙄 you are putting people into 2 categories, vaccinated and unvaccinated. The majority of people now fall into the category of fully vaccinated but anti mandate/pro personal risk tolerance decisions.
The arguments for mandates included doing the right thing for your fellow citizens but that bit of the argument only lasted through the delta variant. The vaccines are so barely effective at minimizing infection with the latest variants that the argument in most of your post is no longer scientifically valid. Of course people should be vaccinated for their own personal health and to limit impact on hospitalizations, but the thought of a company mandating vaccination based on what we know in May 2022 is absurd and the public’s tolerance of Covid mandates of any kind is quickly waning. The days of strong arming people into making a medical decision they don’t want to do are over.
At any rate, this thread is discussing which firms have gotten with the times and dropped their mandates, not debating the pros and cons of vaccination. Eventually all mandates will be dropped. Question is how stubborn firms will be in sticking with their now antiquated policies
You guys sound like a barrel of laughs while lining up to get your sheep feed.
Baaaaaaa
EY lifted vaccine mandates for all offices except NYC where there is an unconstitutional hypocritical mandate still in place because of the mayor who lifted it for performers and sports fugues only.
Well the mayor thought Kyrie would win a championship so he didn’t need to wear a mask but everyone else isn’t special.
Just breath. It’s okay. Also I am at dinner right now in NYC. Nobody is enforcing the mandate in NYC.
They do at EY in NYC. Restaurants mandates were already dropped.
In all EY offices?
Yes all but NYC.
What do you mean they are over? You can’t get in an office unless you are vaccinated.
I believe PWC lifted their restrictions as well. Are Deloitte and KPMG still holding out? I believe KPMG even has a booster requirement for their training facility.
I heard at one time these mandates are dropping because the emergency temporary standard with OSHA has ended as it can only last 6 months. They would need a law to continue it but any employer can make their own policy on this.
When you say vaccine mandates are dropped does that mean unvaccinated still need to test before entering the office?
Coach
We never had testing. Just vaccines. Now no more vaccines (except nyc).
Word from the web is that Deloitte (first of the Big 4 to institute a mandate) is lifting all restrictions effective 7/1.
Can anyone from Deloitte confirm?
