How else in states where there is little choice but to be socially distanced and there was plenty of warning it was coming can you manage to give everyone COVID?
I'm beginning to think that we are much more fucked than I thought.

The dude in chair doesn't look like he's being forced. He's presenting his arm, and holding up his own sleeve. And the woman has a gentle aura about her. They should have made a graphic with the dude in restraints of some kind and a muscular thug doing a one armed MMA submission hold and a monster syringe in the other hand. No mixed messages. Go big.

People who work in healthcare that reject medical science should be fired anyway.

In those states, people have to drive 90 miles to give each other Covid. But they do it!
Sidney, the town of the AG’s legal presentation to healthcare workers who want to avoid complying with the federal law and their employer’s requirements, is a shithole.
I flew there in flimsy little plane to take the deposition of a boy who had repeatedly raped his sister and then sued her teacher (who was a mandated reporter) for defamation. I had to ask him during the deposition about his sexual assault of his sister. As we left, my client said, “You really made him sweat!”
I was like, “It’s me!” I was bigly pregnant and using all-natural, aluminum-free deodorant that did not work.
He had been in juvenile detention and was already out when we did the deposition. Last I heard, the girl had attempted suicide and was in the state mental hospital.
The attorney representing the boy was piece of work. She was like, “he’s served his time. The teacher shouldn’t talk about it.” It was the truth, though. My client had every right to tell the truth. Holy shit. I know I’ve told this story before. That case was traumatizing. That town is traumatizing.
Sorry for traumatizing you.

Though my moral compass agrees whole heartedly, and assuming the perp was a minor, aren't there some sort of protections put in place to stop minor offenders' (minor in age, not severity) details being published on the basis that whatever they did as a minor should not impact their adult life?
The fact this totally ignores the rights of (and impacts on) the victim does not escape me in the slightest. I was just curious whether this was the basis for the suit.

My sister in law said they lost a great employee who didn’t want to get the shot. She told me that employee now took a state job that said she doesn’t need the shot. Lol
Talk about ridiculousness.
I understand both sides, but in the end, companies who truly want vaccinated employees need to just say the requirement to work here is to be vaccinated and quit side-stepping. Call the bluff and let employees walk.
Or, don’t try and make it a rule. One or the other.

The boy’s criminal case was sealed, but the people in town who knew about it didn’t have an obligation to be silent. In fact, my client had a statutory duty to report it. I think there was gossip. And then the boy starting lying about my client. And so she told the truth to defend herself.
The boy’s civil case alleged defamation and maybe IIED/NIED, which is stupid. I can understand that he would want it to be a secret. But his attorney did not help him. The civil case wasn’t sealed. He bragged that his case would win him a lot money. I’m not sure if it could have been handled worse.

No but places like Holland and Germany have something like 60 percent vaccination rates. In our church everyone is following the rules and almost everyone is vaccinated. Our minister made somebody leave service the other day because they were not wearing a mask. Our minister also volunteers at local vaccination clinic. We are baffled by the anti vaxxers. 1 Peter 2:13, Romans 13:1

Yes I thought about that but everyone knows or aught to know that vaccines are given to you if you join the military.
So I would say it’s close but really, you should have known before you joined that they would make get vaccines if you do join.

I'd just love to hear the evidence for why this vaccination is different from the rest. Don't many if not most medical places require the flu vaccine too? Is that now off the table too?
Re: Is this normal? [CallMeMaybe]

This is the new normal. Law, health science and tyranny to be discussed in the Church hall with restrictions placed on who can come to object or to get indoctrinated. I would guess there wasn't an vaccination booth set up in the foyer to the hall.

The point is there are all sorts of reasons people are not getting vaccinations. In our community of 50K with likely 50 churches as far as I can see there are only a small minority that have significant number who are stridently anti vaxxers.

Not sure how this relates to normality at this point as the times we are living are abnormal to begin with. I do think that certain churches have taken a curious posture against vaccination in many different denominations. For example:
Catholic Priest Fr. Ed Meeks of Towson, MD said in his sermon this past week that vaccine mandates are contrary to the teachings of Jesus: “No earthly king or president or public health official .. gets to dictate what we put into our body, into these temples of the Holy Spirit.”

Vaccination as the enemy at the gates. Odd to me.
