There were employees that already got sick and recovered prior to the mandate...

Maybe this information will help you understand:

[NBC News] Immunity acquired from a Covid infection is as protective as vaccination against severe illness and death, study finds https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/natural-immunity-protective-covid-vaccine-severe-illness-rcna71027

I'm sorry that you were negatively affected by the vaccine.

There should have never been a mandate, but with one there should have at least been a robust system to provide medical and financial support for the supposedly rare adverse events.

That's a ridiculous perspective, the vaccine comes with its own risks, especially for those that already had natural immunity from previous infection .

There was a heavy dose of hopium and not nearly enough study data to ever warrant the mandate, but at a minimum natural immunity through proof of previous infection should have been accepted.

It's fascinating how the anti-establishment "my body my choice" crowd suddenly became in favor of mandates from old white male politicians to take pharmaceutical companies with unethical track records.
