For some healthcare workers or essential employees, a state or local government or employer, for example, may require or mandate that workers be vaccinated as a matter of state or other law.” In other words, a private company may require its workers to be vaccinated in order to work there. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can prompt, pay and try, but cannot yet in the U.S. require it. Or do you have an example of any place that has required it. Healthcare? Essential workers? Etc? The EEOC has indicated that employers can require their workers to get a COVID-19 vaccine, even under the Emergency Use Authorization. I personally don’t know of specific employers that require it, but they are allowed to require it if they see fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Became totally disoriented and then unresponsive. Went to hospital by ambulance. Is good now, but it was very scary. Had right arm tremors too, the arm where he was vaccinated. I don’t know if it was related or not, but unfortunately every medication/vaccine can have side effects. 6 hours ago, ace2542 said: I have never been there. Maybe you should research things first before making comments you know nothing about. 6 hours ago, ace2542 said: So how do you prevent lawsuit for catching Covid when someone lied about having the vaccine and or lied about having Covid symptoms? In the ambulance chasing holiday claiming game in UK at least - cant speak for USA. They get the fake claims or sometimes not fake claims through in UK by making the argument you touched the side of the pool with your arms whilst in it and then touched your face and the germs or whatever came from people's feet. That is how you got the noro type vomiting type illness on an all inclusive resort which dinning options included. The claim is defending but that is the argument made. Why are you so concerned about lawsuits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine how many Flu cases could be prevented by that in the USA? That would of course mean masks for life on planes, buses, trains and cruise ships. But think of the infections that could stop and the deaths. You should be more concerned about the UK than the USA.

Maybe because the price of cruises - which are going up anyway after all this - will go up even further because of Covid related lawsuits?. I don't know if they are winnable? It could be tough to prove where you got it from. No one has tried it yet but the ambulance chasers will. And if they win. How much will prices go up? Probably by hundreds and hundreds.

I'm curious to see what they have to say. Sure I can. First, a few caveats: 1. I work from home and have deadlines to meet for work, so (unlike yesterday, when I had more free time) I won't be able to engage in a back-and-forth over this topic. I also have to take my wife for her 1st Coronavirus injection in about 20 minutes. 2. My experience online is that sometimes people innocently ask for links, only to then attempt to discredit them by saying you can't trust the source, or otherwise attempting to de-legitimize information they don't wish to see. (I'm not saying you're going to do that, but it's very common in online debates) 3. I believe that part of the controversy over Covid-19 has been the systematic censorship and silencing of people who won't or don't agree with the established narrative regarding lock downs, mask wearing, and the like. The YouTube channel "unherd" comes to mind. 4. My intent is not to change your mind, so if you decide I'm wrong, that's fine. We don't have to agree, and your not agreeing with me doesn't disprove anything. https://www.aier.org/article/the-censorship-of-dr-briand/ The link I posted above pertains to the story of Dr Genevieve Briand, an economist at the highly regarded Johns Hopkins University who posited that the number of deaths before 2020 was about the same as during 2020, except that more deaths were attributed to Covid-19, but that the overall numbers weren't significantly different. She was subsequently silenced and her YouTube lecture was removed. I have a very big problem with any resource, even a private company like YouTube, arrogating to itself the right to decide truth and fiction, and remove content it simply disagrees with. It sets an extremely dangerous precedent. The antidote to "bad" speech is more speech, not censorship.

M&A Posted March 17, 2021 #145 Share Posted March 17, 2021 On 3/15/2021 at 1:15 PM, livingonthebeach said: The CDC in conjunction with the State Department of Health has released information on how employers can make a vaccine mandatory for their employees. As vaccines become more readily available, this will be easier for companies to obtain and and administer. But that would be for US employers making vaccines available for their employees. The ships are not US ships and the crew are not American employees The cruise lines could require vaccines for passengers and there will be enough vaccinated people out there. The problem is, the crew that are mainly recruited on contract from countries like Indonesia, Philipines, India etc where it's almost impossible to get a vaccine.

lovescats5 Posted March 18, 2021 #149 Share Posted March 18, 2021 So ReneeFLL wants a ship with no kids. I think they should try a different line, maybe Princess. I think they should have ships sail with no FLL people, just kids and over 70. Maybe a lottery to see who can sail on what ship. Like it's the kids fault there is no vaccination for them and then what kind of vaccine will it be. Will it change their DNA and now it might affect their children or their ability to have children. So I guess my family will not be able to cruise because we have a 13 yo and I am 70. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
