Is it legal for my employer to require me to get the vaccine?
Generally speaking, employers have wide latitude in requiring working conditions in the interest of health and safety, and courts generally do not second guess an employer’s judgment, including the use of vaccination requirements, according to Dorit Reiss, a professor of law at the University of California Hastings Law School, who specializes in vaccination law. …

While SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19, acts like a textbook virus in many ways, its impact on people’s health has been widely varied. Though some people develop very few if any symptoms, there are other people whose symptoms of the virus linger for many months. These people are often referred to as Covid-19 long-haulers or people with long Covid. Medicine is still trying to understand how to best treat this patient population, and many people with long Covid must become their own advocates. Thankfully, large support groups like Body Politic have emerged to help people navigate these issues together and search for relief. Below are a few stories for understanding the situation.

Nine-plus months into the Covid-19 pandemic, there’s a lot of lessons learned. Scientists know much more about the virus that causes Covid-19 than they did several months ago. The pandemic has also changed many aspects of modern life, and researchers are also sharing new insights into why people behave in certain ways. Below are some of my favorite stories explaining the nuances and difficulties of pandemic life.
One of the more recent stories is a piece by Kendra Pierre-Louis on the ways that boredom impacts the spread of Covid-19. …

Will the Vaccine Protect Against Other Coronavirus Diseases?
Elemental published an extremely thorough guide to the Covid-19 vaccine, answering every possible question. The FAQ will be updated and added to as the vaccine process continues. The Blog will be featuring a few questions throughout the month.
Will the vaccine protect against other coronavirus diseases?
Sometimes a vaccine for one pathogen offers limited protection against a very similar pathogen, a phenomenon called cross-strain protections. This is most often seen with flu vaccines when several circulating flu viruses share very similar genetic code. But the SARS-CoV-2 virus doesn’t resemble any of the coronaviruses that cause colds.
“We do not expect any cross-protection against other coronavirus infections since the vaccines trigger an immune response to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein,” said [Edward Belongia, MD, director of the Center for Clinical Epidemiology & Population Health at Marshfield Clinic Research Institute, Marshfield, Wisconsin]. “The immune system sees this as distinct from other human coronaviruses with little or no cross-reactivity. Seasonal coronaviruses cause mild upper respiratory illness, and the focus of vaccine development has been to prevent serious illness due to Covid-19.” …
