Interestingly, there are a LOT of people (15-20%) who aren't per se opposed to getting a vaccine, but aren't gonna do it for personal or communal health. Employers encouraging vaccines has the potential to be *very* effective in vaccinating the next wave. https://twitter.com/...

Google and Facebook requiring vaccinations prior employees' return to work. My forecast: a lot of retirements coming in most industries through the end of the year. https://twitter.com/...

It's always an opportunity when you can change a corporate policy in a way that's likely to be disproportionately disliked by employees you'd prefer, on average, consider outside opportunities. I strongly suspect Covidiots are such a group. https://twitter.com/...

Facebook has also announced that employees need to be vaccinated before they can return to the office. The floodgates are going to be open and I expect all the major tech companies are going to have the same policy. https://www.cnbc.com/...

@HaleyMess @Facebook Ironic - if they weren't letting vaccine misinformation spread like wildfire on their platform, they might not have needed to resort to this.

As Facebook reports its grotesque earnings having monetized the anti-vaxx movement and maximized its engagement affinity with other toxic groups seeking to unravel the social order, we note that cities are now resorting to paying people $100 to get vaccinated.
