Lawsuits against employer for termination over covid shot refusal

Well we have a large religious monopoly hospital group that came into the St Louis area and began buying up all the hospitals. I have served 3 lawsuits aginst the hospital on behalf of employees who were terminated for refusing the shots. They provided religious reasons to their administration before termination as their justification for not getting the shot. Should be interesting tobsee more of these coming through now that most places are relaxing their rules on masks and easing up on the shot regulations. I hope they win big and more people sign up for lawsuits. It is just funny that a religious hospital won’t accept your religious rights or freedoms as a good enough excuse to not bend to their will. I think Missouri is a no fault state so employers can fire at will but hopefully the judges see it differently.

I would like to know how this turns out, please keep us updated.
I’m not sure how your religous rights as a Christian can be trumped at every turn by a paranoid and out of control government and big business, but I hope they get hammered for this.

Should be interesting.

Those that rejected the jab, stood their ground and are fighting back are the real heroes of the scamdemic. Along with the doctors and all the people that weren’t afraid and spoke out against the narrative.

Well said sir! :slight_smile:

I hope they are awarded Millions in damages. These tyrants need to be taught many lessons.

I had all of my (2) exemptions granted. I am not sure the grounds to overturn; once healthcare determined it could mandate flu vaccine (or really any other) the door was opened. But I would be delighted to be proven wrong.

No offense intended, but your degree of surprise seems out of proportion to the topic at hand, given that Christians often get vaccines, and hospitals often require them of employees.

I’ll be curious what path this goes down.

I have a question here, especially if any SMEs are in the thread: what options do people have who got the damned jab under threat of termination and got severe side effects? I happen to know a couple. I know it’s near impossible to go after pharma due the Emergency Use thing, but I’d hope there’s some recourse for folks like these? From what I can tell, there are many such. Such a shitshow …

I am a “religious” person but my objection was not religious, it was logical and moral:

  1. I had some serious questions about the unknown long and short term effects of the jab.
    2). I had moral objections to governments and employers forcing something into my body against my will.

I stood my ground along with about 40% of my coworkers, and thankfully the company chose not to mandate. So I had a good outcome relative to my principles. Others were not so fortunate and I hope that they prevail in court.

ETA I do not work in healthcare.

I know a guy whose career as a pilot was ended by the jab. It was mandated by his employer and of course the pilots union didn’t offer any pushback. Hoping for the best for him.

I hope these companies all lose and are permanently damaged. In ANY other situation, people would have been crying out for justice because of racism, prejudice, whatever else.

Christians do get vaccinated, but this is a bit more than a flu shot wasn’t it? If you watched all of this go down and followed it through and were hesitant I can understand. If you prayed on it and decided not to get the shot, well there you go, that’s all that should be all that’s needed for an exemption.
I’m often surprised how unoffended Christians seem to be toward the insanity. It would seem to me that there is a distinct effort to offend them.

Just to be clear, I’m not criticizing that decision.

If “I prayed on it, and decided not to do it” is an acceptable answer in the workplace, then that’s not very “mandatory”, is it? Still, if that adequately protects your autonomy from your employer, then that’s a win-win, since I assume they’d rather keep you if they accept something that thinly veiled.

As far as “a distinct effort to offend Christians”, I think that’s way too much effort to get that outcome. I’d call that ludicrous, but who knows, maybe offending someone is worth the effort that leads down a path of bad morale, lawsuits, and lost employees, all in the name of decreasing employee absences.

I got lucky and never had to choose between the jab and the job. The feds mandated it for us, but my company said they were not going to enforce the mandate. Thankfully the mandate that applied to us got thrown out by the courts.

I have personally chosen not to get the shot, ever. I ain’t gonna say nothing about those who made the choice, of their own volition, to get it. I just feel that no one should have been forced to get it under threat of losing their job. The .gov, the vax companies, and employers who mandated should have to pay HUGE for any harm done by the sting. Including lost jobs for refusing. I doubt they will get their justice, but I hope.

VAX REPARATIONS!!!

A question I never got an answer to was what if someone under a vax mandate was willing to get the jab, but was unwilling to sign the documents they required you to sign which waived all liability for negative impacts? Obviously they wouldn’t give you the jab if you didn’t sign the waiver, but technically you didn’t refuse the vax and I don’t see how they can force you to sign away your rights? What if you signed the waiver, but then wrote that it was signed under duress? Would they have given you the jab then? It’s an open fact that many people signed those waivers under duress, and legal canon has always held that if you can prove duress the contract is unenforceable.

That’s the legal case I’d like to see pressed, because anyone who suffered serious health issues due to side effects of the jab should be able to sue the vax manufacturers and providers. The legal exemptions passed into law and all those waivers, shouldn’t be worth the paper they’re printed on. :frowning:

Interesting. I didn’t have to sign a waiver, and I’m not sure I’ve seen one. If you’re looking for legal precedent, there’s probably some surrounding the DoD anthrax debacle. Extremely similar circumstances, IIRC.

I’d love to see the Hospital administrators who scammed the govt by falsifying Death certificates prosecuted. But that won’t happen because they were advancing the scam.

The first time I got the double jab, it was by uniformed military members working in a civilian vax site. On the 6 month refresher jab, it was by a civvie at the county health dept. I had to sign the waiver for all three jabs.

FWIW, I had bad side effects from the booster and decided I wasn’t getting any more. If they’d maintained the mandate and forced the issue on a 2nd booster, I decided I was going to say I’d take the jab but refuse to sign the paperwork. If they forced the signature issue I’d sign, then document that it was signed under duress. Not sure how that would’ve played out. :frowning:

Yeah this same hospital had tractor trailers parked outside forever meant to house the piles of bodies they were going to be swamped with over covid deaths. They never got to use them.

A coworker almost died from the shot when he had an allergic reaction to it that was closing up his airways. Was in a medically induced coma for a few days. The doctors would never come and and say that the cause was the shot. He had a mild reaction to the first shot and way worse the second time. Lucky our dept was not pushing the shot and we picked up a few experienced guys who left depts that were pushing it.
