My friend got a job working in a shop environment for Mack Truck. Today, he and all of the new hires were told "You must either be vaccinated, or be tested for covid *weekly* and submit your results. Otherwise, you cannot work here." So what does this say? They're turning up the pressure on the un-shot. This is just an extreme inconvenience. Who the fuck wants to get a Q tip jammed into their sinus cavity every fucking week after putting 40+ hard hours in? How can they do this? What the fuck happened to HIPAA? Does it just not "count" when it comes to specifically covid? My friend is asking me what to do. He really needs the job (in a dire situation) but he is absolutely unwilling to bend his principles and take a shot that has fetal cells from a murdered fetus. This is admirable. If just half of the work force had strong principles like this, none of this bullshit would fly. He also has a pretty good reason for not wanting to be tested weekly- he's skeptical, and suspicious, that these Q tips coated in a strange, unknown solution might be contaminated with something. Any thoughts? There's not really a whole lot he can do as far as I see. Until some lawyers grow balls and start resisting this shit on behalf of their clients, it looks like us wage slaves are at the mercy of our corporate overlords, and it's fucking frustrating.
