INSIGHT-From Boeing to Mercedes, a U.S. worker rebellion swells over vaccine mandates

November 03, 2021

With a three-week gap between shots of the Pfizer /BioNTech vaccine, workers must get the first jab by Wednesday. Workers could opt to get Johnson & Johnson's single-shot vaccine until Nov. 24 to meet the deadline. More legal clashes are likely over how companies decide requests for vaccination exemptions. For Boeing Co in the United States, more than 7,000 workers have applied for religious exemptions and around 1,000 are seeking medical exemptions, people familiar with the matter told Reuters. "We expect that the vast majority of our employees will provide proof of vaccination before the deadline," the company said.
