Honestly, it makes no difference to me. Mrs. Deez has made peace with the vaccine, has gotten her first Moderna shot, and will have her second one in time. However, this shenanigan of hiding the ball on the exemptions while having a hard deadline to get vaccinated is about as slimy as it gets purely from a procedural standpoint. I'm generally not a fan of government employee unions, but if one wanted to make itself useful for something . . .
My private employer is doing the same thing within the federal contractor guidelines. They also broadly define contractor to be anyone in a building with people who work on an actual contract.
