Please post an article or analytic point around what we are discussing to this ongoing blog; and respond to one other student post during each module as well.  
Please use the article I choose: https://hbr.org/2020/04/what-will-u-s-health-care-…
The purpose of this blog is to build a healthcare community among us; identify for each other key aspects of health care “current events” that we feel are important and worthy of discussion in this type of class; and provide one another with our expert analysis of a given trend or development in health care, including things we are learning about in this class. You can:  post an article link to your blog post, introducing us to a reading you think is interesting, then briefly make a point about something in that article or that article’s major theme, related to readings in current or prior modules, to help educate us on its relevance. 
And here’s the other student’s post that you need to respond (50-100 words for responding &100-200 words for your own post):
https://www.nytimes.com/article/unvaccinated-covid…

The Biden administration announced on Thursday that the Department of Labor will mandating that workers at companies with 100 or more employees are vaccinated or have weekly testing. While in module one, we focus on how the US healthcare system is financed, it does not include who is paying for these tests.
This article states that the plan will most likely be scrapped, however I don’t think it should. At this point in time there is no reason to not get vaccinated. The Pfizer vaccine was granted fully approved by the FDA on August 23rd. The vaccine are widely accessible now and free to receive. Also, it is a civic duty to protect those around us. Additionally the logic of “I don’t know the long terms affects” are irrational because we don’t know the long term affects of the virus. People are willing to risk the affects of the virus rather than trust science and medical professionals.
If the plan is not scrapped by the Biden administration, the article states that it will most likely be up to the employer to decide who pays. In a perfect world, the employer insurance would cover routine testing, however our healthcare system is not perfect. If it isn’t and a company forces employers to pay I can see it being very problematic. In some states, they may argue that it is unlawful to require employers to have their employees vaccinated and or pay for COVID testing which is required by the state. My gut tells me in some southern states like, Texas which just passed an anti abortion bill, will take this mandate to the court and refuse to abide by it. While the issue of who pays for COVID tests is not the same as the issue of abortions, they both boil down to if the government control peoples bodily autonomy. In the US, the answer for women is yes, but for men it is no. Therefore, I wouldn’t be shocked if the mandate does not hold up.
