What rights do employees who are not keen to get the vaccine, asks aria Simon of @KELSEYORTH on @HiMamaSocial webinar.
Explains @KELSEYORTH : for a policy to be reasonable it needs to be clear, and consequences of not following also need to be clear. If we can mandate, need to consider the legal framework.
Without recognition of human rights or medical exclusion, explains @KELSEYORTH, your policy will fail. Religious exemptions and medical exemptions are necessary. On @HiMamaSocial webinar.
What if employee refuses? We can’t force people to vaccinate, explains @KELSEYORTH, but absent human rights protected grounds not to vaccinate, the question is whether the policy is reasonable. He thinks just firing refusers is not reasonable right now.
It’s worth exploring other options like working from home before firing, says @KELSEYORTH. But certainly think about what’s reasonable and available. Tricky to have people work from home for childcare. On @HiMamaSocial webinar.
Some workers may have access to paid leave, suggests @KELSEYORTH.

A bit of misinformation about #COVID19 deaths came across my feed, so I thought I’ll share why it’s untrue. It’s based on the fact that this graph combines Covid-19, influenza and pneumonia deaths and used to claim @CDCgov is inflating covid deaths. 1/n cdc.gov/coronavirus/20…
It’s reminiscent, as provaccine people may remember, of how antivaccine activists claim flu deaths are inflated - and that, too, isn’t true. google.com/amp/s/www.forb… 2/n
Here, too, the graph is used to mislead, and its easy to check. First, if you scroll to the bottom, you see this link. cdc.gov/coronavirus/20… 3/n
