      The only problem with this is allowing continued community spread allows the possibility of more variants, and having enclaves of anti-vaxxers in proximity to the vaccinated or partially-vaccinated creates an incubation chamber for viral evolution.

      I mean that as an alternative we impose a social cost. Your COVID vaccine record becomes a passport to socialization, restaurants, bars, etc. I don't think forever quarantine is a solution either, but an endemic fatal coronavirus would be a forever nightmare.

      They aren't giving people cards anymore? I got mine. Everywhere I've seen giving shots has been recording the data on who they gave it to and reporting to VAERs

      No I getcha. But I'm required to get a flu shot to maintain privileges. We sure as hell can make the point to employers that unvaccinated employees spreading disease will make them liable, so they better vaccinate their workforce (or make them mask), then the dominos fall.

      The problem with #CovidVaccine right now is that, while the law is clear that employers can require an FDA-approved vaccine as a condition of employment, it's not clear that they can require a vaccine issued under EUA that's not fully FDA-approved yet.

          Wife’s work had that discussion and they will require it as soon as full FDA approval is granted. Corporate council was pretty firm that they could not require it under a EUA. It’s fun peeking in on their meetings seeing how leadership of a pretty large company view things.
