Doubtful. Some people might make a little bit of noise, but how many are willing to give up a Google salary to fight for the anti-vax cause?

I have nearly died twice in my life as a physical reaction to a vaccination and am being advised by my physician not to take these yet.
I am now in the position of choosing between a Google-sized salary and whatever risks are associated with these vaccines. This isn't a decision being made lightly.
I'm not anti-vax, I'm just pro-me. That 20 per 100K could be you.

If you read the article you will see that they are making an exception for medical reasons.

Not my company. At my company, I have to be back in an office and vaccinated.
At my company it's 100% a political signaling move.
Also New York State stopped recognizing religious & medical exemptions for vaccinations for school attendance over a decade ago. Companies based out of here are basing their decisions around this policy.

I find this hard to believe - you should name and shame them if it's true. Your claim about NY seems wrong - they still recognize medical exemptions:

nah. you’ll be fine and get an exemption. Taking the vaccine usually goes like this: risk if you take it <<< risk if you don’t take it. I’m gonna bet you real money that if you actually tried getting it you would get screened out based on the questionnaire you fill our before the vaccine.
google/facebook is gonna understand this
