OT Coronavirus: America in chaos, News and Updates. One million Americans dead and counting

well thats pretty generalistic….

im not religious. I never said that and i got vaxxed, so how does that apply to my questions and concerns?

 

I couldn't disagree with this more....the VA hospital, everyone I know who is back to work require covid safe environments...if you are self employed you may not choose that route but long term business plans today include a safer environment for the general public to share space..it's common sense to me. Nobody needs to politicize it, it's everyone's problem. The worst thing a company could do now is have a death from covid or spread throughout the staff that shuts them down..wearing a mask and getting a vax isn't anywhere near as serious as that outcome. I doubt an insurance company would touch a business this year that doesn't have a covid filter in their place of work and safety protocols..if people could just come together behind helping stop this from spreading more we could get back to normalcy sooner. The Blazers want this to work, not have to shut down after one game because of masks or vaccine requirements

 

nevermind how I was talking about religions generally being non-inclusive. Tell me about how the LGBTQ population is so well readily welcomed in religions. My comment on religions clearly went over his head. Religions are social-cultural systems of designated behaviors and practices, morals, beliefs, worldview, etc. Giving money does not make you a better person or religions or whatever. Plenty of religions give money to political causes to further their agendas and beliefs. There are reasons religions battle one another. There are reasons multiple religions exist. People choose and/or conform based on their beliefs. One minute, dude's talking about people being sheep and taking the vaccine; the next minute, he's defending the sheep that hide in their religion.

But whatevs... BAH.

 

thats a hospital. Come out into the blue collar construction workforce and you wont disagree anymore.

thw covid safe requirement are mandated and increase overhead. Sorry but you really need to visit some fab shops or something to get a better understanding.

 

I’ll put this in the COVID thread because it looks like a super spreader.

 

I just had a logging crew, a plumbing crew and a water catchment crew work on my place this summer and everyone had masks and distancing and seemed happy to see us masked as well....I'm talking about public shared spaces...not steel mills though...I have no idea what you guys chopping metal do or talk about..I can say everyone I know working is happy to follow safety protocol so be assured...it's not about making a buck before they get shut down, it's about staying open long term....my oldest son's cable crew is on quarantine in N California right now over a covid case and my daughter in laws company just went through the same thing...it's serious shit

 

Actually in Central and Eastern Oregon you have a lot of school boards and district's that are doing what they can to go against the mask mandate. I know in Redmond they are having a school board meeting tonight and at the last meeting the board voted to look at how to not enforce the mandate. Teachers and Admins can loose their licenses if they don't, but some boards don't care and are voting to not require masks in schools even though their is a mask mandate.

 

businesses are looking for ways around as well. At least business in industrial areas.

 

I don’t get it. If everyone at the game is fully vaccinated why do you have to wear masks as well?

 

Read the thread, then post?

 

But are the businesses risking their employee's licenses?

 

I ain’t got time to read thru 9 pages of posts.

 

not sure what you mean by employee’s licenses?

do you mean will union workers lose union benefits or lose union representation?
What license do you speak of that an employee must have?

 

LMFAO, FAMS!

 

No if school boards vote to force schools to ignore mask mandates, any teachers or administrators who do not enforce the mandates can be stripped of their teaching license if the state chooses. So a teacher could be forced by the board not to enforce it and legally the state can take their teaching license from them.

 

This has nothing to do with the Blazers. This is about people’s opinions on COVID. Move it bro! Don’t come on here to see this bullshit!

 

The answer to "why are we here?" is quite literally "to pass on our DNA".

 

What are your specific questions about the vaccine?
