Fox News hosts deride vaccine mandates while complying with strict Covid policy
When Biden set forth a plan requiring companies with 100 or more employees to ensure their workers are fully vaccinated or show a negative COVID test at least once a week, he noted that “some of the biggest companies are already requiring this — United Airlines, Disney, Tyson Foods and even Fox News.”
Yet Kevin Lord, executive vice president of human resources at Fox News parent Fox Corp., said in a memo this week the company will be requiring all unvaccinated employees to be tested each day — not just once a week — in order to work in company facilities. The policy was first reported by CNN.
Fox last month required employees to report evidence of their status, and Lord said more than 90% of full-time employees have been fully vaccinated.

Re: losing Job because of Covid mandates?
I lost my job, not because of the mandates, but the drop in service calls due to COVID. I worked a 1.5 man territory and begged for help for a year. I ended up with COVID and was hospitalized for a week. I had a very long recovery of 12 weeks due to lung damage. During that time, the company hired a guy as a second technician. I came back to work and we both were very busy for about a month. Then, the calls stopped coming in. Customers were working from home. I was doing only 3 calls a WEEK and catching up on training in between. After two months of that, the company decided to let me go but kept the new guy. I am actually slightly relieved because I am still having breathing problems a year after my hospitalization. So, COVID killed my job.
