Description
The long, dark COVID winter experts have warned about is upon us. But there’s also some light at the end of the tunnel, albeit faint and distant. One drug manufacturer has already applied to the FDA for approval for its COVID-19 vaccine. Another company is close behind. And the U.S. Health & Human Services Secretary says both could be available to some Americans before Christmas. That got the Jasons thinking… can your boss force you to get a COVID-19 Vaccine? So they turned to Sarah Mitchell Montgomery, a partner at Jackson Walker law firm who specializes in employment law. She says there’s a short answer, with some caveats. And she’ll tell you why she foresees a coming spike in COVID-related litigation.
