Disney Defies GOP, Mandates Vaccines For Employees

One of the largest and most iconic companies in America and the world, Disney, is defying Republicans and is mandating vaccines for its employees.

Despite the overwhelming scientific evidence showing vaccines work against COVID-19, Republicans have attacked science and medicine.

“The Walt Disney Co., a media conglomerate that owns Disney theme parks, ABC networks, and namesake movie studios, will require all salaried and non-union employees to receive a Covid-19 vaccine, according to a statement,” NBC reported.

In a statement, Disney declared that “the safety and well-being of our employees during the pandemic has been and continues to be a top priority” and that “we are requiring that all salaried and non-union hourly employees in the U.S. working at any of our sites be fully vaccinated.”

The announcement is a blow against Republicans and the anti-vaccine message being promoted by right-wing outlets like Fox News, but a win for ongoing efforts to fight the virus.

Disney and its multi-billion dollar enterprise are weighing in on the side of President Biden and Democrats.
