So if some employees due to medical conditions cannot take the vaccine, after consulting with their medical practitioners stated no to the vaccine, can't they take that employer to the industrial court for discrimination, seems unjust that vaccinated are offered bonuses but the unvaccinated must salt .....I always thought bonuses were paid based on exceeding targets not based on vaccination status

You should state the medical conditions that would prevent a worker from being vaccinated.

this is a good video, thank you for posting it.

that bossman real brave. serious talk, respect, we live in a violent, angry country. He riling up them people could make them go and hunt he down and buss stone in he head like they do the St. Vincent PM. Serious talk. People dead in this country over a beer.

secondly, bossman need a better mask and probably should double mask. double masking makes the mask fit better, too.

lastly, I know bossman want his workers ("herd") to be vaccinated and I know that it is his business and money at stake. But taking away bread from employees, financially punishing them, is the wrong way. That inherently creates hostility. Bossman should instead give a bonus for getting vaccinated, maybe provide time off, free transport, etc, as incentives. That rewards people and put them in a good mindset to comply, a spoon full of sugar makes the medicine go down, etc.

I love how these businessman sounds like they have your best interest at heart by saying "vaccinate to save the lives of your friends, family and co-workers" but in fact they truly mean "vaccinate so I can keep making money".

true. name one group of people who wont? lol

at the end of the day, it's all business - people livelihood on the line. another lockdown sure to decimate more poor people. because most of us here are lucky we dont feel it does not mean 'things smooth' and 'lewwe open everything up now'. it's all two-sided and that's the reality.

Someone familiar with Industrial Relations told me that he can't take away a bonus from ppl that they were already getting I.e annual xmas bonus if they are not vaccinated. However he can offer a new bonus as an incentive.

Then that would mean the company would have to spend more money .....I believe the workers should call his bluff if he doesn't pay the unvaccinated the same bonus as the vaccinated even though they worked just as hard for it, then take him to the industrial court

And I guess the equivalent of taking a vaccine would be an anti-virus program which the AI Robots will be compliant since we will program them to be so. :D

I've taken the vaccine bro, I'm just playing Devil's Advocate in this situation here, besides you shouldn't have to infringe on someone's else's rights to get what you want which is what that video above with the businessman is clearly doing.

People saying to do your own research and make a choice. Stay away from social media….fair enough. What do you say to all the medical experts that are against the vaccines. There are alot of websites and videos out jus like the mainstream pro vaccines ones. This is like one big general election, pro vs con, party vs party, same difference. Only time will reveal the truth behind all these decisions.

In the real world what happens when you have a balanced arguments pro and con in a life or death situation as it is? Science has been right and wrong before. Even when probability is on the table, the <1% con will still make some hesitate.

^ says the hypocrite who pushing for vaccines, where the long-term consequences are unknown, because he thusty to bubble up on women. Ok sir. Additionally, I am not anti-vax. That is a lazy term to call individuals who have concerns on the vaccines for covid-19 as, I have never discouraged or attacked anyone who took the vaccine. You guys on the other hand continue to attack those of us who dare to question these vaccines. Calling ill-harm on us or death. You guys are sad sad individuals who feel that to get their way or point across they need to verbally attack individuals.

Don't vaccinate, get Covid, spread it to other unvaccinated in your circle, get hospitalized, Dead.
I really can't believe that even with our local figures showing the unvaccinated percentage of >90%, there are still people who won't get vaccinated, then yjey're the ones who want to jump up and cry for Industrial Court when someone has a belief in vaccines, just as strong as they have against it :?
NO ONE, wel certainly not me anyway, is wishing ill on any of you. I'm merely pointing out the path that close to all of the hospitalized and dead took. Do with it what you will.

A single dose of the Covid-19 vaccine made by Johnson & Johnson is highly effective in preventing severe illness and death from the Delta and Beta variants of the coronavirus, data from a clinical trial in South Africa suggest.

The study is the first real-world test of the vaccine’s efficacy against Delta, a highly contagious variant of the virus surging across the United States and much of the world. South Africa’s Ministry of Health reported these preliminary results at a news conference on Friday. The data have not yet been peer-reviewed or published in a scientific journal.

In the trial, called Sisonke, the researchers evaluated one dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine in nearly 500,000 health care workers, who are at high risk of Covid-19. The vaccine has an efficacy of up to 95 percent against death from the Delta variant, and up to 71 percent against hospitalization, the researchers reported. (The vaccine did slightly worse against the Beta variant, which is thought to be more adept at sidestepping the immune response than Delta.)

“We believe this vaccine is doing what it was designed to do, which was to stop people going to hospital and stop them ending in I.C.U.s and dying,” said Dr. Linda-Gail Bekker, co-lead of the study and director of the Desmond Tutu H.I.V. Centre at the University of Cape Town.


Good news about the J&J we ordered 800,000 doses in. 95% efficacy against the death. One shot, two weeks, and you can breathe easy.

The issue is why this vaccine in particular.
Nobody had issues with other vaccines in the past or now other than antivaxers.
What makes covid vaccines so different?
I can tell you.
Fear mongering amongst politicians in the US.And everything stupid that goes on in America has to happen here.Trinis who don't even have a password anti-trump and all BLM.
So it follows that the stupidity of antivaxers will reach here.
Stop trying to relate unrelated things.
The effectiveness of a vaccine has nothing to do with global politics, illuminati conspiracies or aliens.Those are ideas put out by idiots with an ability to present well just to cause confusion out of pure maleficence.
All well and good to follow conspiracy theories, just don't try to follow all at the same time.
