This is furthermore worsening the supply chain issues and projected shortages in police departments nationwide. For instance, cities like Seattle and Chicago are gearing up to lose considerable amounts of law enforcement if they fire unvaccinated workers.
Ironically, these cities are most in need of police presence; yet, they’re treating this situation as if police are a dime a dozen. This will not bode well for the residents of these communities.
A turning point in the COVID vaccine mandate debates
Southwest Airlines isn’t the only company to signal a turning point regarding COVID vaccine mandates. Earlier this month, San Francisco’s In-N-Out openly refused to discriminate against unvaccinated people.
This resulted in the city of San Francisco shutting down In-N-Out; however, some people have suggested the burger joint should move to a red state. Likewise, the state of Indiana has reached out to Chicago police officers, offering them jobs if the city of Chicago fires them over the mandate.
