"Trust the science" is the most cult-like phrase. Blind faith in authority is not scientific, if anything the scientific method promotes SKEPTICISM.
Since when is it "scientific" to change definitions for an agenda? (of Vaccine, herd immunity, etc).
Since when is it "scientific" to flip-flop as an authoritative source? (2 weeks to flatten the curve, lab leak theory is a cOnSpIrAcY tHeOrY! don't wear a mask, wear a mask... etc)
You think just because someone is wearing a labcoat they are immune from conflicts of interest, corruption, etc? Look at historical examples with how tobacco influenced pressure to say smoking was safe. Everytime you see a commercial "you may be entitled to compensation" its because "the science" was corrupted.
(Except if you took the vax you DO NOT get compensation because the companies are not liable, another red flag to anyone with common sense).
Why cry about vaccine mandate. Just go to a company of your choice that doesnt need it
Forced relocation on the other hand is not great!
25% of the company will leave because they are being asked to trust science?
Not likely.
In other companies, the number of people who actually quit if 0.5-1%. Thats a perfectly acceptable loss to ensure that Fiserv isnt afflicted by COVID.
So how secure is uploading your private health information to an unknown website that supposedly will not relay health info to the company.
And all the "wellness" benefit cr-p- goals that give you money back, such as losing weight, and participating in health info - is this as private as you think? Not.
Frank probably laughed like a madman when the email went out. The thought of shedding 25% of the workforce under the guise of actually caring about safety really tickles his fancy I bet.
The protected need to be protected from the unprotected by forcing the unprotected to use the protection that didn’t protect the protected.
How do you spot someone who buys into internet conspiracy theories instead of actually looking up the law?
"HIPPA"
@yyb+1dtVDxjt - they didn’t lie. You signed into a portal that initially recorded your response - I got a vaccine or not. You then submitted proof of said vaccine, or proof of why you can’t/won’t get a shot. Providing those details was done by you. No lying going on. No violation of HIPPA laws.
"No one is forcing you to remain working at Fiserv"
This...
Let's talk about what Fiserv (Frankserv) is really doing with the relocation, go to an office in your city, and get vaxxed or scram initiatives. They are rebuilding. Mostly, they don't want you to stay; they want you leave and are unapologetic about it. You are either on their side or in their way. So pick a side that benefits YOU, not them. Stop worrying about HIPPA and your feelings. No one gives a scchhiit about your feelings, mate. Make a plan and be ready to execute on that plan. You'll be fine. I'm rooting for you, for me, for all of us.
"For public safety"... You realize every evil authoritarian horror that has happened in human history follows the same logic right? The bad guys don't understand they are the bad guys, they think they are justified.
You may think vaccine hesitancy is "stupid" but I'd wager you get all information from an echo chamber controlled by billionaires and corporations. I hate to break it to you, but those people do NOT have your best interest in mind.
If Covid really was so dangerous, and the vaccine was so effective, the troops would be defending the vaccine distribution centers from overwhelming demand, not pushing propaganda and leveraging corrupt corporations to coerce dissenting citizens.
No one is forcing you to remain working at Fiserv
Unfortunately the vaccine wont solve the stupidity of people trying various ways not to take the vaccine and endanger other. Why don't you go work for yourself or with other people like you. Covid is a pandemic. No one is asking for your other vaccines

The number of COVID related deaths exceeds the populations of the following states:
- Wyoming 581,075
- Vermont 623,251
- District of Columbia 714,153
- Alaska 724,357
- North Dakota 770,026
What a pitiful testament to American "exceptionalism". Sigh...
As of 10/24/2021 there have been 735,964 COVID related deaths documented in the United States. Even this horrendous amount of human suffering has not proved sufficient to unify our country in fighting the virus together. Just pathetic....
"It may be an invasion of privacy, but it doesn't violate HIPPA. Sedgewick is a clearinghouse within the meaning of 45 CFR § 160.103. Since you consented upon login to the vaccine verification portal, Sedgewick's dissemination of information about your vaccine Status is not "unauthorized" under 42 U.S. Code § 1320d–6."
Translation: "Hello, I'm holding a s*n to your head. Here is a piece of paper. If you don't sign it, I twitch my finger."
See?!?!? They consented!! It's covered under 42 U.S. Code § 1320d–6!!!

Stop talking out of your a-s about laws you never read.
HIPAA is involved. Please be tested for dementia
"HIPPA has nothing to do with this. Omg. Seriously? Get a clue before posting stupid stuff."
A VP said during a town hall "The Sedgewick info is anonymous due to HIPAA and all, but we want people to respond with their vaccine status so we can plan for capacity in our offices."
He lied.

People apparently wanted tyranny over mean tweets, and they got it. IDGAF.
It literally violates HIPAA. And the constitution but you carry on boomer
The mandate has nothing to do with HIPAA. It has everything to do with common sense and public safety.
