  • I basically agree, the only difference is that it’s something you put into your body with potential side effects (extremely rare of course) which feels like it’s crossing a different line than PPE.

    Combine that with many employers never requiring other vaccines before but adding the COVID vaccine as a requirement for employment not just for new hires but people already employed and I think it was just a bit too far. Maybe if people had the option of really masking up or something instead and they refused that too would I feel better about it.

    Don’t get me wrong, I’m like triple or quadruple vaccinated for COVID at this point, but that’s because I felt it was the best course of action. I would’ve not been a fan of my employer requiring it even though it’s something I was going to do anyway.

    Well I’ll have to look it up now, but I see it as a substance produced by the body that isn’t made of cells itself. Like any of the other excretions and things the body makes.

    Edit: apparently both your nails and hair are mostly made of keratin, but keratin isn’t produced and excreted to produce the nail and hair structures like a playdough factory like I imagined. Special cells are produced that are primarily keratin and they are added to like a chain and die/harden as they are pushed out from the body.
