Is that true and, if so, how do we do that? CBN News Medical Reporter Lorie Johnson joins the show to discuss.

Now, officials believe t ....

No Jab, No Job

The Omicron variant is ramping up with daily case averages nearing seven hundred thousand. But with millions of unvaccinated Americans’ jobs on the line, so are the legal battles against the vaccine mandate. The U.S. awaits a decision by the Supreme Court following arguments last Friday about President Biden’s far-reaching vaccine mandate. Meanwhile, employers with 100 or more employees are implementing testing requirements and mask orders to meet today’s compliance deadline. CBN News Medical Reporter Lorie Johnson is on today’s podcast episode to talk about how the mandate might stand up in court, how the Omicron variant is spreading, and the best tools we have to fight COVID in the long run. ....
