OSHA posts medical coercion rule: Get vaxxed or give us your money

At the request of President Joe Biden, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration issued an emergency temporary standard on Thursday demanding that private companies with 100 or more employees mandate the COVID-19 jab for their workers.

The rule, which is technically effective once officially posted to the federal register and enduring a public comment period, requires U.S. employers with 100 or more workers to create and enforce a COVID vaccine mandate for all employees.

Any businesses that want to give their employees the illusion of the choice to reject the shot are allowed to implement an exception policy that stipulates anyone who doesn’t get the jab must “undergo regular COVID-19 testing and wear a face covering at work in lieu of vaccination.” The government agency will not require businesses that provide the second option to their employees to pay for the testing or masks.

Businesses that do not comply with the rule by Jan. 4, which leaves two months before businesses are supposed to act on what OSHA has labeled an “emergency,” will risk fines up to $14,000 per violation. Potential violations could be reported to OSHA by tattletales.

OSHA claims the rule was created for the sole purpose of “protect[ing] unvaccinated employees of large employers (100 or more employees) from the risk of contracting COVID-19 by strongly encouraging vaccination” and supersedes any state or local laws, but data clearly shows that getting the COVID-19 jab does not mean you can’t contract and spread the virus. As a matter of fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that while it’s at a much lower rate than unvaccinated cases, breakthrough cases, hospitalizations, and even deaths occur in people who have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
