Briefly Noted: GE Suspends Its Mandate
H/T TGP. This is important news. GE has something like 174,000 employees. Other major corporations may want to follow suit:
CNBC reported:
General Electric suspended its Covid vaccine and testing requirement on Friday after the Supreme Court blocked the Biden administration’s mandate, a company spokesperson told CNBC.
GE, which had 174,000 employees at the end of 2020, has encouraged its employees to get vaccinated, the spokesperson said.
That was very prompt on GE’s part.
Possibly stupid question. None of the COVID shots are approved or licensed by the FDA--they come under the Emergency Use Authorization, which means, as I understand it, that they cannot be forced or required. How are employers getting away with mandates? The Pfizer vaccine that has been FDA approved is as yet not available. Where am I going wrong?
You knew this was going to happen eventually. They going to blame this on the Russians too?
