This is lunacy to be firing these people over something that doesn’t even work!

Science is as always changing. Those having taken the vaccine are causing more harm to others.

It’s a fact that mask’s an vac’s don’t stop the spread of Covid or any other Variants of the Virus just because the vaccine lessons the affects of a virus does in no way give anyone the Authority to deprive anyone of their livelihood stop this nonsense now and bring back the people you have let go

This vaccine mandate and discrimination against the unvaccinated knowing that the vaccinated can acquire and transmit covid is incredibly wrong. The fact that I have had covid twice now, I am not vaccinated and when I went to work, I was exposed to covid from a vaccinated employee and yet I am the one forced to test twice weekly and I am forced to wear a fitted N95 mask. Whereas the vaccinated are not held to the same standards is clear discrimination against Arlington County employees. If this County wants to profess to be equitable, unbiased, and not discriminate they probably should focus on the blatant discrimination against those who have natural immunity and the unvaccinated. If you wish to protect your employees, all employees need to be treated the exact same way, and test if they have symptoms and stay home. Otherwise, all of these other protocols that are being done clearly are not preventing or stopping the spread of covid.

In support of all this. Also in favor of a real hearing where we can shed light on the reality of the recent data and studies showing results/and efficacy contrary to what’s being pushed by this agenda

These heroes have withstood the worst of the worst. It makes NO sense to fire the very men and women we need so desperately.

studies are now showing natural immunity lasts longer than the vaccine.

Time to realize the COVID virus is smarter than Pfizer. We need early COVID intervention with therapeutics.

It is medical discrimination to penalize the unvaccinated when 1) people with prior COVID exposures have natural immunity, 2) medical treatment is/should not be viewed as a one-size-fits-all approach and 3) the current COVID vaccines neither prevent an individual from contracting COVID nor prevent a vaccinated person from transmitting the virus.

Firing staff will put a hindrance on the operation of the police, fire and sheriffs office. It will ENDANGER the lives of the citizens we swore an oath to protect by delaying calls for service because of short staff. It will create overtime which will cost the tax payers MILLIONS. It will force others to quit because of the forced overtime. THIS IS A HORRIBLE IDEA!!!

These first responders were there for us throughout the pandemic. Firing them now would be madness and cruel.

It is completely unconstitutional to mandate experimental gene therapy. VA constitution gives
even greater rights to the people, not to the government.

This is medical tyranny and discrimination, you’re causing more damage to the world by forcing this on people and FIRING those who don’t comply, than by letting them choose their own way and being accountable for their own lives. LET PEOPLE LIVE THEIR LIVES!
