TopicNYC waitress fired from job for not getting the Covid-19 vaccine

I'm torn on this.

On the one hand, she's in a job where she absolutely should be vaccinated, and I'm all for employers telling their staff that they have to be vaccinated if they're to turn up for a shift. The thing about it possibly preventing her getting pregnant sounds like a weird angle for her to take, too - I've not heard anyone suggest this could be an issue.

On the other hand, it's bollocks for them to change their policy then dismiss her immediately. Surely they should give a warning period that their rules have changed, even if it takes the form of "you can't come back to work until you're vaccinated, and if you're not vaccinated by x date we'll terminate your employment." You can't fire someone for not following a rule that didn't exist moments before - it's like sacking someone for having dyed hair immediately after introducing a "no dyed hair" policy: give people a chance to rectify it and comply.
