We have 1 party, this is just another example of buying positions probably knowing in advance what the corona action plan was.
They banter, both persuasions, in the public for show while shaking hands and giving each other hugs behind the curtain, just examine their behavior, look at their record.
Her and Joes behavior is not unknown to the locals in Delaware, just ask some of the business owners who were stiffed.
yeah, there may be a tinge of feigning victimhood, but at least he's projecting the deviance of our predatory adversaries.
I admire the fact that he's out there rolling around in this shit and doing what he can to expose the Nation destroying bureaucrats and their private sector minions.
HHS Becomes Latest Federal Agency to Mandate COVID-19 Vaccines for Workers
August 12, 2021
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) on Thursday said that it will require all of its frontline health care workers to receive the COVID-19 vaccine, according to agency Secretary Xavier Becerra.
HHS is now the third federal agency to require its employees to receive the vaccine, joining the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Defense.
“Staff at the Indian Health Service (IHS) and National Institutes of Health (NIH) who serve in federally-operated health care and clinical research facilities and interact with, or have the potential to come into contact with, patients will be required to receive the COVID-19 vaccine,” Becerra said in a statement on Thursday.
The policy will apply to more than 25,000 individuals who operate health and clinical research facilities, or who could come into contact with patients.
“Our number one goal is the health and safety of the American public, including our federal workforce, and the vaccines are the best tool we have to protect people from COVID-19, prevent the spread of the Delta variant, and save lives,” Becerra said.
The list of staff who must get vaccinated includes not only employees, but contractors, trainees, and volunteers who are in contact with patients in HHS medical or research facilities.
According to the HHS statement, Surgeon General Vivek Murthy said that members of the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps also “immediately” need to get vaccinated as part of “medical readiness procedures to prepare for any potential deployment need as emergency responders.”
The initiative echoes a mandate from the Department of Veterans Affairs, which implemented the policy soon after the Department of Justice’s Office of Legal Counsel determined in late July that it was legal for private businesses and public agencies to require COVID-19 vaccines.
The DOJ’s opinion, which noted that some have questioned the legality of such mandates, concluded that federal law concerning the Food and Drug Administration’s emergency use authorizations on COVID-19 vaccines do not “prohibit public or private entities from imposing vaccine requirements, even when the only vaccines available are those authorized under EUAs.”
On Monday, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said he was attempting to get all active-duty members of the military to receive the vaccines. President Joe Biden, meanwhile, said that all federal employees must attest to being vaccinated or face regular testing and social distancing requirements.
At the same time, states like California and New York have also issued mandates for state employees to get COVID-19 shots.
“As President Biden has said, we are looking at every way we can to increase vaccinations to keep more people safe, and requiring our HHS health care workforce to get vaccinated will protect our federal workers, as well as the patients and people they serve,” Becerra said.
