    Not really. It wouldn't bother me if they gave the test at work, I guess.

    I do wear a mask at work (since last week) because it is required.

    Either way it is no big deal to me.

    I am not going to whine about wearing a mask at work or about getting tested at work.

    LOL. Nyah. As Christians, God indicates that sheep is who we are. Alternatives include goats, known to mislead sheep and avoid doing good, and wolves, known to mislead sheep and eat them.

    The "trick" is to heed the voice of the Good Shepherd. :Thumbsup

    That's exactly right, helpless without a good shepherd.

    Seems to me that requiring employees to get the vaccine is a violation of their medical rights and the hippa policies. I could be wrong, but I know that many have already stated, including many attorneys in our area, that they have papers ready to file against companies that try to mandate vaccinations. With a 99.7% recovery rate, there is really no need for a vaccine. Most of my family has declined the vaccine, and many of us have had the CCP virus...We're all still alive!

    Agreed but I feel like a boy-scout (be prepared). I’m thinking to have some type of anti inflammatory to take just in case.

    I agree. I am not taking the shot. Heard a podcast yesterday with the Dr. who holds the major MRNA patent. He says those who got vaxed will be highly susceptible to the variants. Said they will die at a much higher rate than non vaxed. He said mRNA vax was not intended to treat a relatively non dangerous virus like Covid 19. Said it was intended to be a fast vaccine that would buy time in event of a pandemic that threatened the existence of humanity. He can't believe the technology is being used for Covid 19.

    So Walt says that employees must get the Chinesee virus Shot
    and some people say that an employer cant do that.

    So which of these 25 Disney rules should be done away with?

    Deflection.

    Suppose the BB owner said you have to get the jab to moderate?

    We should speak privately as to how to obtain the necessary medications if you are willing. You do know my wife is a stage 4 cancer patient so I’m anxious to get this for her survival. I have an interest of my own but Pam needs to come first. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    1) My comment was NOT deflection
    I will spell it out so you can understand.

    Apparently you don't think that employees should get the shot if they don't want it.
    But Disney has a valid reason to insist it.
    They also think there is a valid reason that a "cast member" should not have a tattoo.

    If you dont like those rules - dont apply.

    and yes, I have been in a similar situation ----
    I applied to as a salesman at a radio station
    after a few days - and thinking I may get the job
    I called the sales manger and mention I would prefer
    not do work on accounts with alcohol.
    The next day the Sales manager call to tell
    me the job was filled.
    Fine - I went and found another job.

    Now for your silly question - that mods on BB should be required to get the shot
    give me a good reason why - then I will determine that you statement was not a deflection

    My Doctor wrote me the prescriptions. Daystar TV has a list on their website of telemed docs that are likely to write the scripts.

    And of which many doctors effectively used early and reported yet no one would listen. And still will not listen. There wasn't any money to be made in them.

    Thank you!

    I am surprised that a pharmacy would fill that prescription though. I’m not doubting your success, just that I’ve lost all confidence in this darn system.

    Disney could also mandate that employees are tested on a weekly basis... in fact they are finding that people who have been vaccinated still carry the COVID virus in their nasal passages and so they can still spread COVID... thus the new CDC guidelines on mask wearing.

    Since there should be concern for the employees greater health, Disney should at least offer to cover that (via workman's compensation or some other means).

    I’m wondering, since Ole Walt promoted Christian values, is Disney a Christian Company?
