Universities are organizations that receive federal money and grants. Universities should be held to the same standard as other businesses that are under Executive Order 14042.

Eventually all the not vaccinated "believers" will get covid and only then will they beg for a vaccination before their loved ones watch them die

Jack L

Far too many people have died from this virus already. Universities should comply with the federal mandates. Only by being vaccinated can we slow down this pandemic

Rita Maloney

We cannot stop the spread of COVID-19 without being vaccinated. Vaccine mandates have been around in this country for many years, and as many deaths that have been caused by COVID-19 I don't understand why there's so much animosity towards getting the vaccine to stop these senseless deaths.

While Universities receive grants and money from the federal government, work from professors and students should not be mandated as they are not federal employees.

750,000 covid deaths in the US, with population of 331,000,000 people. 5,000,000 covid deaths in the world, with population of 7,900,000,000 people. Why would we have four times the death rate in a modern nation with good medical care, than third world countries? Because it is a lie. That's why.

Max

Sensible people use the science and the real data. Liberals use the lie-ence and fake data. Real numbers don't lie.

Lisa Gore

Freedom of choice, also the vaccines are far less effective than previously thought, they mostly are experimental still and there are side effects. Why mandate free will for choices that can affect our personal bodily future health?

Adam Schrader

Vaccines save lives! Period!!! I'm vaccinated and yes, I got covid-19. I had a very bad case of it. Had I not git the vaccine, chances are I'd be DEAD! Vaccines don't guarantee you won't get covid. They sure can reduce the symptoms and save your life though.

Injecting a needle without permision is RAPE. Their bodies their choice.

I have never stopped wearing a mask in public buildings.

yvngfree

This is the way.

Foster Fell

Though I am fully vaccinated, I still need to protect against a breakthrough infection from the Delta variant. In which case, I would not be sick, but would still be infectious and capable of infecting someone who is immunocompromised,--or unvaccinated. Let's fight the virus, not each other.

Tarasem

I will do as business owners request. Their house, their rules.

Sheri Clarke

I've never stopped! There's too many not vaccinated!

Latterdaysaint

You can still get it if vaccinated, and the mask has been linked to pnomonia

Mary Dulin

I'm fully vaccinated with booster. BUT My immune system is compromised And I am over 63 yrs. Old. So a mask 😷🎭 is not a problem.

Mary Jacks

We need to take care of each other and what I do affects us all!

C. Adrian Clark Jr.

It's smart.

David Brown

Only when there are children present and cannot distance until the vaccines have been approved for children under 12. If parents do not wish to vaccinate their children I do hope they have taught them healthy habits and Universal precautions.

Mike Everstone

Because it's the right thing to do for me, my family and the people of Central Oregon.

Vernon Budd

It's a safety thing

Does this really even need explaining?

yvngfree

Try to stop the spread to others. It doesn't matter if you care or not.

Ric Pruitt

HELL NO !!!!!

Meloney Robles

Mask have not proven effective at stoping covid. They cause headaches, acne, breathing issues and other issues. I am tired of small businesses being shut down while places like Walmart and Amazon have profited from the pandemic. I am tired of being lied to. No more mandates or mask or closures!

MaryBeth Pearson

Masks are garbage against a virus. Cross contamination is not a conspiracy theory.

Latterdaysaint

Wearing Masks have been linked to pnomonia

Stephanie Davis

This is new. I'd love to follow up on it. Do u have a specific source I should start with?

Greg Moore

We have known since last year children are of effectively zero risk. They are also not effective at spreading the virus. Plenty of examples of schools without masks not increasing general rates of community spread. None are providing statistics/scientific studies supporting mask demands for kids.

Kenneth Emmrich

I am vaccinated and will not do it voluntary unless going into a medical facility.

💛🖤 RAG 💛🖤

Let's get EVERYBODY vaccinated is THE SOLUTION!!! I'm fine if you don't want to BUT stay home when you get Covid and don't take up space in the hospital.

Meagan Gordon

I’m not even going to explain my opinion to be bashed by the vaccinated! Totally against masks, that’s all!

Stephanie Davis

I did what I was supposed to do. Im fully vaccinated as is my immediate family.. I'm not going to try and protect other folks who refuse to have personal accountability. I am worried about the kids though. They have no alternative. They need to mask up for safety.

Justin Gottlieb

The real choice: Vaccinate or Die? If you are a Patriot/Revolutionary, you are vaccinated. If you're NOT, I believe that person's Health Insurance premiums should increase to $10,000 per month and disqualify the Individual from Subsidized Health Care. No more enabling "Stupid".

Cindy Warren-Sawyers

It is not necessary this is and should be for the unhealthy children have good immune systems and for the children that do not their parents know they will make their children mask.up

Angela Cavanagh

I will shop online or somewhere where I can breath free. I got covid even while wearing a mask. They don't work.

Leonard Engstrom

O hell no not warring one

Scott Albert

Not going to happen!!!

Rick Allen

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Miss Blackpool

there is NO EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE that wearing a mask prevents infection or transmission of a virus! I WILL NOT COMPLY!

Public Health trumps any one person’s personal liberty. This is a war we must have compliance with. Otherwise, lockdowns are again inevitable!

Greg Moore

Really? Then we should ban use of alcohol for many people are killed by drunk drivers, we should ban big cars that are more likely to kill someone, we should ban stairs as 100s or 1000s die every year on stairs. No, there are limits on stripping liberties on the basis of Public Health.

Kenneth Emmrich

It amazes me that so many people are so ignorant and selfish in their refusal to get vaccinated. How much more evidence does someone need to see that the vaccine will save their life. If you are not vaccinated and you get Covid, you should have to pay your own medical expenses.

Greg Moore

Did you have the same opinion of those with AIDS? What about obese people?

Dusti

Funny cuz all the vaccinated people are passing Covid around. And I’m not getting it. I refuse. Nobody knows what problems it’s going to cause 5 years from now.

diane diehl

this virus is deadly, spreads extremely fast and continues to mutate. in order to slow this process and keep our children safe getting the vaccine is essential .

Dianne Price

Hospitals are being overwhelmed with covid patients, most have not been vaccinated!! Come on people---GET THE SHOTS!!

Paul Owen

We have been getting vaccinated since the first three months of being born. Maybe if the medical community would stop treating the unvacinated. After all it's free choice.

Rick Allen

I will NOT wear a mask, but I do not understand why everyone wont get vaccinated so we can get past all of this! IT should not have to be mandated, just fricken do it, do it now!

I don't support this because its up to the individual if they want to get vaccinated. They shouldn't be forced to do it.

This is a massive uncontrolled, un constitutional govt over reach.

Nik Myles

They are being forced though coercion. They are being threatened with their jobs. That is coercion.

P Robbins

It is not unconstitutional. No one is being forced to be vaccinated, but the vaccination has become a condition of certain types of employment. I had to be fingerprinted and have a negative TB test in order to receive my teaching credential. I was not forced to get the credential. It was my choice.

Lynn Owen

Coercion is against the law. Vaccination under threat of losing livelihood….no one should have to be coerced into receiving it.

Coercion, like when there was a million dollar drawing for getting covid vaccinations.

Pamela Walters

NO ONE SHOULD BE FORCED TO TAKE A VACCINE THAT IS NOT BEEN PROPERLY TESTED NOR BEEN PREOVEN TO WORK.

Crystal Malone

Its been proven alright proven it dosnt WORK

Mackenzie Ehrens

Medical freedom our own bodies our choice.. This is gonna destroy and cripple our health system and education system . this whole pandemic is a crock.. Its just like the flu..99% cure rate is hardly a deadly virus

Lisa Stutzman

The government needs to leave my health-care choices up to me!

Dale A. Neill

Your government should not be able to tell your employer what they must require medically to employ you. Total over reach.

Strelchun James

Such mandates violate personal conscience rights and religious rights, especially when considering that the "vaccines" are experimental, unproven, novel gene therapies and have connections to aborted children. Natural immunity studies show natural immunity is 6.7X more effective than "vaccines.

Brown is way over stepping. OHA is part of that.

It's for the people by the people. The majority of the people want their right to choose for themselves. Going against that is against the united states constitution.

Dusti

You don’t know what’s in it or what problems it can cause 5 years down the line. I refuse.

Angela Cavanagh

It's not okay to force it on someone. I have natural immunity from having covid, have been around people that have it currently including some that have gotten the shot and I have not gotten sick therefore I won't spread anything. So why force something that isn't needed on some people.

Raymond Hays

It should be a person's own choice whether or not to take the injection

illuminatedi

not all ages should be forced to be vaccinated.

Tim Collins

hell no. Tired of politicians telling us what to do.

Christena

There is no need for this. Besides according to all the research the vaccine only helps reduce syptoms, it makes not difference in the spread of it, so it should totally be an individuals choice.

Mackenzie Ehrens

This is bullshit... What happened to my body my choice? Forcing a vaccine should never be mandated!

Britnie Hood

Science is clear, children have adverse effects mentally and physically from starting school to early. https://www.sleepfoundation.org/school-and-sleep/later-school-start-times

Mackenzie Ehrens

This is horrible! And against our rights

Hannah Jacobs

You have more people dying from heart disease than from COVID. Our health decisions are for us to make not government or anyone else for that matter.

Crystal Malone

1. It dosnt work 2. Not a vaccine 3. Over reach of power 4. My body is not your concern 5. This is all a fear tactic and its not working. 6. Higher risk of death from the shot. 7. This is supposed to be AMERICA land of the FREE, NOT free for the government to do what ever they WANT!!

Nik Myles

It's not a vaccine. there is no vaccine for a virus. Never will be. You cannot create a vaccine for an ever changing vaccine. They have been trying for years with the seasonal Flu. All they could create was a temporary flu shot. The mRNA is not a vaccine.

Kristina Biederman

No one should be forced to put something in their body they don't agree with. Freedoms given away are rarely reinstated.

Latterdaysaint

No one should be forced to get the vaccine
