re: Company I work for fired engineers for not getting the vaccine

There's some serious retardation by what should be considered intelligent people otherwise.
They are treating the vaccine as if it's impossible to contract the virus once you get the shot.
? What if you've already had the virus? Do they not count natural recovery as being equal to vaccine?
I know my company doesn't count recovery. Recovery/ unvaxxed = mask up. Got the vaxx = no mask
We also don't have a contingency plan for whenever the shot is no longer effective.

Also acting as if contracting the virus is a death sentence.

In hospitals you can opt out of the flu vaccine. Then they just require you to wear a mask. This isn't new.

It sucks...but I believe in a private company's right to run their business how they choose to.
But I also believe if they are gonna require it they shoulder some liability if they're are health complications due to their requirements.

Whew! That was a close one. You almost had to criticize the firings based on your principles.

Employers are not “covered entities” under hipaa unless they are.
Even if they were, they just get you to sign something saying they can share your PHI with customers or be fired.

The way to stop this shite is for the State govt to mandate anyone requiring vaccination to sign for responsibility for any future issues that may arise in any individual who works for them.
I expect this to come up in future yrs in the SC. It is long been the policy of OSHA that if a person comes to work and incurs an injury then said company owns it even if the employee did something at home and returned to work too soon and re-injured the same thing.
This is no different with requiring a vaccine shot that is still listed as experimental.

In our company, all exemption requests go to our HR and Legal departments. They make that determination based on some process that I'm not privy to.
Thats fine with me, I don't want to be in the position of having to determine what is valid and what isn't.
I do know we have granted several exemptions so far.

Your company has no loyalty to their workers. You shouldn’t have any to them. I would start looking for a job with their competitor and not feel bad one bit for screwing over your current employer any way you can.

Cool story, brah.
I never said all hospitals did. Just that the precedent was set for this a long time ago.

This is something I see over and over on this topic and it doesn't make sense to me.
Let's flip it around and see if it makes as much sense to you.
Let's say that your company announced that it was not going to require vaccinations, but that if another employee or customer determined by contact tracing that any unvaccinated employee gave them COVID and they suffered significant adverse reaction or death as a result, the employee in question agrees to be financially liable for the person they gave COVID to instead of the company.
Would you think that would be fair? Because it's exactly the same thing and makes an equal amount of sense.

First of all, your attitude has nothing to do with COVID or any vaccination—you had it before COVID and you will have it after. This is just a convenient justification for you. Yes, i can tell just from your comments here...I'm very well versed in people with it.
Secondly, the employer is attempting to provide a safe working environment for its employees, so your whole premise is ridiculous.
As small as the death rate is for COVID, it dwarfs the death rate for these vaccinations. I'm not saying anyone should get anxious about either one, as both pose a very small threat to anyone who isn't already medically compromised, but it's a fact that the COVID is more dangerous than the vaccine.

Like how your first response to this is to attack the one consistent ideological group.
