We have been using peroxide to clean and disinfect since the beginning of all this. We use it on cutting boards, wipe door knobs, even swish in the mouth for killing bacteria.

I'm guessing you're refering to the mandate being allowed to go through? You would still be able to just do weekly testing. Yea its inconvenient but what isnt anymore?

The testing would likely be at my expense. Also, a company making money off me being forced to give up my bodily autonomy is nothing short of human trafficking.

"The more universal they are, the more... you can't jump from one industry to another or one company to another," de Blasio said. "It's something that needs to be universal to protect all of us." https://www.cnn.com/2021/12/06/business/new-york-vaccine-mandate/index.html

Oh, it is being said already.

It isn't going to end with 100 employees. Or with testing options. Religious exemptions are already going or gone. So are medical exemptions, although they will probably not go completely. Medical exemptions being squeezed are much less talked about but just as real.

Except, it doesn't need to be universal to protect us all. If it was at all about the science, natural immunity would be considered. And requiring people to get their vitamin D and zinc levels up out of deficient ranges.

My doc put on my medical chart before the test results even came in that I was vitamin D deficient. She said "i dont like lying but Ive seen it a lot"

This is an assumption though, isn't it?

I mean the part about you having to pay for it.

Some employers may foot the bill but they are not going to be required to. The employee is the one getting the bill$$.
Not sure why Biden wants to just charge unvaccinated workers for testing and not everyone. If you follow the science, what the CDC, WHO, and Fauci have said fully vaccinated and even boosted can get and spread covid.
Just imagine unvaccinated workers getting stopped at the door and paying for a negative test while vaxxed coworkers walk right in no test carrying and spreading covid.

@Ninjasquirrel , have you ever taken up baking? I read a study recently on how it decreases depression and anxiety. It certainly has for me.
