The Supreme Court of the United States establishes that Biden cannot force employees of large companies to be vaccinated or tested

The Supreme Court of the United States has blocked this Thursday the plan of the Joe Biden Administration to require that all employees of large companies be vaccinated against Covid 19 or undergo tests for the virus on a regular basis.

The highest judicial authority in the country, with a conservative majority, has established that the Government exceeded the limits of its authority with that mandate, although it has accepted the mandatory vaccine, as an exception, for people who work in health centers that receive public funds. , that is, the majority.

Biden's requirement focused on companies with more than 100 workers, which would have resulted in mandatory vaccination or weekly tests for some 84 million workers in the United States.

The three progressive justices of the Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Stephen Breyer, dissented from the conservative majority and believed that Biden's mandate should not be blocked.

The six conservatives, who form a loose majority in a body of nine magistrates, positioned themselves in the opposite direction, although four of them also disagreed with the mandatory nature of vaccinations for workers in the health sector.
