From WSJopinion: It isn’t merely unnecessary for me to get the Covid-19 shot. It’s potentially dangerous. I have natural immunity, so there’s no justification for a coercive violation of my bodily autonomy, writes Todd Zywick.
Main Street: The CDC should scrap its confusing guidance and make Covid-19 vaccination the only priority. Images: AFP via Getty Images Composite: Mark KellyIn a few weeks I will begin my 24th year as a law professor at George Mason University. Last year I volunteered to teach in person, even though I’m in my 50s. Teaching law is my job and I owe my students my best. I also knew I could do it safely.
But now my employer, a state institution, is requiring Covid vaccines. In my case, vaccination is unnecessary and potentially risky. My only other options are to teach remotely or to seek a medical exemption that would require me to wear a mask, remain socially distanced from faculty or students during, say, office hours, and submit to weekly testing.
It would be impossible for me to perform my duties to the best of my ability under such conditions. The administration has threatened those who don’t submit with disciplinary action, including termination of employment. This week the public-interest lawyers at the New Civil Liberties Alliance filed suit on my behalf, challenging the university’s mandatory vaccination requirement for those with naturally acquired immunity.
