Are employers allowed to mandate a vaccine for their employees?
The short answer is yes. At both public and private companies, because it is in the interest of public safety, vaccines can be mandated for employees.
Can a business mandate its employees get the COVID-19 vaccine?
It s a question that employers are definitely mulling over as coronavirus vaccine access grows and businesses start returning to in-person work. It s also a question that employees will be wondering when they re summoned back to their job.
The short answer, as FOX 2 s Charlie Langton points out, is yes.
The public health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has been profound and it isn’t over yet. Some patients diagnosed with COVID-19 experience physical and cognitive symptoms, some for the first time, many months after they were first infected, a condition commonly referred to as “Long COVID.” Symptoms range from mild to severe, with some people unable to work or being repeatedly hospitalized. While COVID-19 vaccines were developed at record speed, doctors are finding solutions for “long-haulers” to be a little more complicated. “We are still being humbled by COVID,” says Daniel B. Fagbuyi, M.D., a former Obama administration biodefense and public health appointee and an ER physician. “We don’t know everything yet. We’re still learning.”

If you experience severe and persistent pain, you may want to see a doctor.
Q: How can a person tell when a muscle ache is just from exercising and not from something else?
A: Soreness is the normal response to exercise stress, minor muscle injury, and then repair. But there is a good soreness and a bad soreness. In general, exercising should create a level of soreness that only lasts a day or two.
Good or “healthy” soreness comes from working your muscles to their limits. On a microscopic level, some muscle fibers may tear. Over the next couple days, your body repairs the damage. If the injury is mild, the muscle is broken down a bit and ends up stronger than before. For exercise like fast walking or workouts on a treadmill, expect the soreness to affect both sides of your body.
