I'm sure that this will be legally challenged. The OSHA angle seems a bit of a stretch. To be clear, people should get vaccinated, but this one feels like it may not survive judicial scrutiny. The requiring federal employees to get vaccinated is likely sound, but the private companies seems a bit of a stretch.

You stated:
"I do not want to take medical treatment for an illness that I do not have."

I think you meant to say, "I do not want to take medical treatment for an illness that I have no way of knowing I have until I may have passed it around to others and potentially killed them or killed people they in turn passed it on to."

I don't understand what race has to do with weather or not people should get vaccinated? It is makes you feel better, everyone who can get vaccinated, should get vaccinated, I don't care about your ethnicity, social status, etc.

MSgt Robert "Rock" Aldi Why wear a condom if she isn't pregnant yet?
Why drink water tonight if I don't have a hangover yet?
Why put on my seatbelt now if I'm not in an accident yet?

The vaccine isn't TREATMENT. It is prevention.

Why do I think that is? I really don't know. Having said that, it doesn't look like black or Hispanic people are really that less likely to get the vaccination than white people (even though they are more likely to die from it). Who tends to be overrepresented? Asians. I suspect all of that is correlation. The causal factor? Could be education level that has a much stronger relation where Asians tend to be overrepresented in higher education levels too, but that could just be correlation as well.

Looking at it by education level:

It's not going to happen all you can do is hope you live in a red state. If you don't then you better pack your bags an be prepared to relocate to one.

Whenever a Democrat is in trouble (in this case his disastrous AFG pullout), they pull out either the race card or these Americans hate you card. So, now we are supposed to be mad at these 80M people. 2 simple little questions... how many of those aren't able to get the vaccine because of the science (remember that), and if you are so damned worried about the virus, why is the southern border wide open?

SPC Eduard Romanov - That wasn't my point, I meant the Dems only have a few cards they ever play, race is one of them the other is pitting americans against americans.
