Then you will know whether you will refuse the test or not. I personally would refuse it. I will also refuse vaccination and if they try to force it on me then someone might lose his life if he is trying hard enough. |

Renaissance Woman User ID: 78438561 United States 11/19/2020 10:29 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Can you ask for a blood test instead? At least that wouldn't be a PCR test (which is bogus anyway) and wouldn't be ramming a swab up next to your brain. Maybe get a doctor's note saying you can't do the nasal test because of whatever reason... tonsil problems, sinus issues, whatever you can get. Make the employer do the blood test, even though that will seriously annoy them. I'm curious what others have to say, because I have a family member who may be facing this issue in the next couple of months too.

But a blood test is less dangerous and more accurate than PCR, which makes it the lesser of two evils, I think. I could be wrong. Maybe you'd get lucky if you pushed the issue by demanding a blood test, and they'll give up and let you pass. "For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light." |

So if they tell anyone at work your results you can sue them. “However, if an employer learns that an employee has COVID-19, they may report the name of that person to a public health agency.” |

They make you quarantine for 14 days or they fire you. yeah I really don't need to be fired right now. Its a cozy job actually. Just now, I am afraid as to what ground I can stand on if I tell them no. ITs hard to find any info on it, when I bring it up with my colleagues they think im nuts to refuse. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78148460 I havn't checked as I don't know anyone else who did this, but I think they will ask for some kind of proof. Forge the documents. Easy to do. Or go online and gwt a fake soctors note. |
