Indiana University Can Mandate Vaccines, Federal Judge Rules

states, “With the ultimate goal of returning our campuses to normal operations, beginning with the fall 2021 semester, all Indiana University students, faculty and staff will be required to have a COVID-19 vaccine and be fully vaccinated before returning to campus.”

“You must be fully vaccinated by August 15 or when you return to campus after August 1, whichever is earlier,” the policy reads, later stipulating that the vaccines must be FDA-approved. “A person is considered fully vaccinated two weeks after having all doses of a vaccine .” The school asks students, faculty, and staff to attest to their vaccinated status and also includes some leeway for those arriving from international locations where the vaccine may be less accessible. If people refuse the vaccine, there are consequences.

“For students, they will see their class registration cancelled, CrimsonCard access terminated, access to IU systems terminated, and will not be allowed to participate in any on campus activity,” the policy says. “Faculty and staff who choose not to meet the requirement will no longer be able to be employed by Indiana University. Working remotely and not meeting the COVID-19 vaccine requirement is not an option.

There are some exemptions to the policy: religious, ethical, medical and online – students enrolled in only virtual classes are not mandated to receive the jab.

Boo hoo, students.

Unbelievable 🤦🏼‍♀️

😮

The Moderna and Pfizer vaccines are very safe, very effective, and are now some of the most well-studied vaccines in history. This is the safe and right public health decision to keep the most students, faculty, and staff safe.

How appropriate.

Higher education denies vaccines work. No one who got the shot (s) needs to be afraid of anyone who hadn't.

Judge upholds COVID-19 vaccine mandate in victory for Indiana UniversityIndiana University students must comply with the school's COVID-19 vaccine mandate for the fall semester after a federal judge refused on Monday to block the school's inoculation requirement, one of the first rulings of its kind during the pandemic.

'The students have options -- taking the vaccine, applying for a religious exemption, applying for a medical exemption, applying for a medical deferral, taking a semester off, or attending another university.' That is very good news
