Should large businesses require their employees to be vaccinated? I feel like being forced to be vaccinated is not right. I feel that those people should have a choice with what they feel is safe for them. Biden’s administration has the vaccine mandate working through the courts, for that you could possibly be required to be vaccinated at your job whether or not the U.S government says so or not. This mandate requires that businesses with over 100 employees must be vaccinated or tested weekly throughout their business. This mandate also stated that you would then have to wear a mask daily after being vaccinated. What sense does that make? If you’re forced to be vaccinated but then have to wear a mask, I don’t see why you can’t do one or the other but both don't seem necessary to me. 

Recently, the airport has lifted their restrictions on the mask mandate and has made it optional if you would like to wear a mask or not. When I flew home yesterday from Florida, there was an announcement for the TSA which is like the controller of all the airports, more like the boss of all the airports that masks have become optional on airplanes and within the airports. After we heard that, then we had seen there is already a federal turnover to take away these no masking guidelines. If we’re being honest though, most of those people on the airplanes weren’t wearing the masks correctly and you’re never going to get 100% of people to wear them or wear them correctly meaning what’s the point of wearing them at all.

I feel that this masking and mandating vaccinations has gone too far and they need to dial it down a bit. I feel that vaccinations and masks should be a pro choice of the people and should not be forced upon them. I think people are really starting to get irritated about all this and they all want a break at this point. 

 

Do you think it should be a choice driven decision? Why or why not?

Would you work in a business that mandated masks and vaccines? Why or why not?

  • Good job overall Roberta! I would like your opinion expanded on a bit more. This topic has been done before so unfortunately, no extra credit this time.

  • I think that for bigger businesses it would probably be a good idea just so not everyone in that building gets sick. Also this could easily happen because your are in close contact with almost everyone in a big office building. Personally I would probably work in a business no matter what their decision is on masks and vaccines.

  • I think that it should be a choice and not a driven decision because they shouldn't be forced to get it over a job. Personally, I wouldn't work in a business that mandated masks and vaccines, but I would probably work there if they only mandated masks.

  • I think that the larger a business and the more people that the employees interact with on a day to day basis, the stricter the safety precautions should be.  I think that in most cases, it should be left up to personal choice unless other people feel safer or have health concerns.

  • I think that for bigger businesses and or bigger corporations that it would be a good idea for them to have masks due to the risk of the virus being spread. Then again, I think that it it should be a personal decision for that person.

  • I think that it should be a personal decision and not a forced thing. I think this because some people feel as if it being forced is like taking away their personal rights. I would probably not work somewhere that mandated the vaccine. I probably would still work if only masks are required.

    • I agree with you because I think that it should be more of a choice thing and not forced upon people.

  • I think it should be their own choice if they want to get the vaccine or not. I dont believe someone should be forced to get the vaccine or wear a mask because of their job. The company should make it well known that they require these things before someone joins them.

  • I think it should be the worker's choice. It should be up to them whether they should put something into their body. If I was working somewhere and they decided to make a mask mandate I would not work there anymore and I would quit. If the company wanted to do this then they should have everyone sign a contract when they are hired.

    • I agree with you because people should be able to pick what ends up going in your body and it shouldn't be forced upon you like they've been doing to many people.
