72% of unvaccinated workers would quit to avoid forced vaccine

(KYMA, KECY) - A new survey of over 1,500 people found a majority of unvaccinated workers would rather quit their jobs than be ordered to get vaccinated.

The Kaiser Family Foundation, a think tank concentrating on health issues, questioned more than 1,500 American adults in October.

Of the unvaccinated, 37% said they would quit if they were forced to either get vaccinated or take weekly COVID tests.

If their employer mandates vaccines and doesn't offer the testing option, 72% say they will quit.

This comes as the Biden Administration is drafting new workplace safety rules that would require businesses with 100 or more employees to mandate vaccines or frequent COVID tests.
