  2. Yes, Employer Can Require Covid Vaccine

    My political ( leftist, rightist or in betweenist) beliefs have NOTHING to do with my health care decisions. I look at the information and make my decision. It really does not matter; how can you FORCE someone to have something injected into his/her...
