An appeals court blocks the administration's plan to drive vaccinations at larger businesses.

If enforced, the ruling by the the fifth US circuit court of appeals would be a blow to the Biden administration's sweeping measures to extend vaccination.

Mr Biden says the mandate, which would cover more than two-thirds of the nation's workers, would set a national standard of safety at work. On Thursday, the president said employees at large companies would have to be fully vaccinated by 4 January, calling vaccination "the single best pathway out of this pandemic".Many businesses in the US already require their employees to be vaccinated. There are also requirements for military and federal contractors.

But opponents say it is not constitutional for a president to impose such a sweeping nationwide rule. Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who has opposed government mandates on vaccines and masks, applauded the court's decision.But Labor Department solicitor Seema Nanda said it was "confident in its legal authority" to issue the rule.

Come on why should a black skin always be a victim

Honestly if you are going to show people getting the jab at least pick some that look less painful.

Where are our courts to protect NHS staff and carers? sajidjavid is despicable to fire NHS after we've worked through the pandemic

Booster profits. Covid is a god send for Big Pharma and big business. Every government on the global is a vax sales representative and taxpayer funded philanthropic vax buyer on behalf of their captive citizen populations. So Big Pharma and big business covid profits soars.

Why do you show the needle? Sensation? Wow

Pandemic of the vaccinated. While the vaccine may reduce deaths, serious illness and symptoms there is increasing evidence that vaccinated people still can carry and spread the virus just as much.

I need companies who want Covid instead of vaccine to declare it publicly so I can decide which company I want to do business w. I am all in favor of living & being healthy & anti-dying of Covid_19.

👏👏👏 stand up!

Anti-vaxers are endangering other citizens especially children!

Good. Cos the last thing we need is another pandemic that meant that those in need of care could not be treated because a vaccine or adequate PPE is not available. Thats the message here which is silly.

anti scientific.
