OSHA first stated: “If you require your employees to be vaccinated as a condition of employment (i.e., for work-related reasons), then any adverse reaction to the COVID-19 vaccine is work-related. The adverse reaction is recordable if it is a new case under 29 CFR 1904.6 and meets one or more of the general recording criteria in 29 CFR 1904.7.”
That's what the OSHA site may have stated a few days ago, but now the message is completely different: "DOL and OSHA, as well as other federal agencies, are working diligently to encourage COVID-19 vaccinations. OSHA does not wish to have any appearance of discouraging workers from receiving COVID-19 vaccination, and also does not wish to disincentivize employers’ vaccination efforts. As a result, OSHA will not enforce 29 CFR 1904’s recording requirements to require any employers to record worker side effects from COVID-19 vaccination through May 2022. We will reevaluate the agency’s position at that time to determine the best course of action moving forward."
So injuries from employer-mandated vaccination will no longer be counted as workplace injuries. That turnaround was even quicker than George Orwell.
So liability for the actual vaccines was waived for Pharma, and now industry’s liability is waived. Where then does that place responsibility? It appears the individual bears it. Why would anyone get it?
Either a secret wish to die.
Or a herd mentality. From an evolutionary perspective, doing what the herd was doing was once the "safe" thing to do. The deer that wandered away from the pack was easy pickings for a predator.
Or because people are genuinely getting dumber.
