Another one not understanding what Variant means Spewing nonsense that the covid of last year is the covid of today
original covid everyone had equal exposure
Delta (B.1.617.2). This variant is nearly 2x as contagious as earlier variants and might cause more severe illness. The greatest risk of transmission is among unvaccinated
Omicron (B.1.1.529). This variant is 4x as contagious as delta spread more easily than other variants, including delta. But it’s not yet clear if omicron causes more severe disease.
Unvaccinated People Are Increasing the Chances for More Coronavirus Variants here in America and around the world

plenty of vaccinated people are spreading it now. they just don’t get very sick.
college campuses with 100% vaccination rates are seeing big outbreaks. the vaccine appears very effective at reducing severity ( which is great) , not so much at reducing frequency. especially with the new variant.

Too funny, the guy who doesn't understand what COVID means, telling people they don't know what variant means.

I think if we are going to continue to fire people who don't have covid and are unvaccinated/unboosted....it's only fair that we also fire people who are vaccinated/boosted and get covid.... |

How dare anyone make responsible behavior a condition of employment.
Almost every employer has a long list of things you’re required to do or prohibited from doing.
Bet you can think of a few all by yourself

Conditions of employment
Don’t like it go find another job.
And I am sure there have been people whom have lost their jobs for not wearing their seatbelts where required by the employer
