Starbucks says its U.S. workers must be fully vaccinated by Feb. 9 or face a weekly COVID testing requirement.

The Seattle-based coffee giant said Monday it was acting in response to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, which issued a vaccine-or-test requirement for companies with more than 100 employees in November.

Starbucks SBUX, -3.21% is requiring its 228,000 U.S. employees to disclose their vaccination status by Jan. 10. Starbucks said full vaccination means two shots of either the Pfizer PFE, +1.60% or Moderna MRNA, -1.02% vaccine or one shot of the Johnson & Johnson JNJ, +1.35% vaccine.

Or quit the woke Starbucks, and people should make there own coffee and save money

Don't these corp morons know that breakthrough infections are everywhere? These infections cause spreading of the virus. Vaccine passports are of NO value. Until a better vaccine is made, nothing changes.

There's going to be a lot of upset coffee drinkers soon. 😮🤣🤣 thesejokeswritethemselves

I’ll take “ways to exasperate an already scarce labor market , for $400 , Alex “

What do you mean 'face' a test like it's a big deal? So they have a choice get vaxed or don't get vaxed and get tested. Sounds great. What's the big deal?

alot of starbucks in my area already have staff issues, wait until employees quit now. Starbucks will have major staffing issues. can’t wait for people not getting their coffee and how pissed they will be. this will be interesting.

Beyond useless

And the lepers should have to pay their own medical leave and any over time paid to coworkers as a result of their selfishness. 👍
