How can I get a religious exemption from the COVID vaccination mandate?

The same could be said for any hospitalization due to careless or negligence or just bad judgement. Work injuries resulting from failing to comply with safety regulations, contact sports injuries, motorcycle injuries, most auto accidents, smoking, drug use, fighting, unhealthy diet, I mean I could sit here all day listing the infinite number of hospitalizations that could’ve been prevented. These are just as much of the problem as COVID patients. Nearly 2/3 of COVID hospitalizations are due to obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and heart failure not from healthy people who’ve simply contracted the COVID virus. The majority of COVID patients are suffering from compiled complications due to other illnesses.

While all of that is true, it does not alter the fact that unvaccinated people present a greater risk to everyone.

That’s not the case at all because the majority of people at my work are not vaccinated and are against the mandate. I think they realize that unvaccinated people are only a threat to unvaccinated people.
But you would agree right that's certainly not the case where a lot of people work?

Here is the difference ( in terms of other hospitalizations most people are seeing that are not co-vid related and that is that while yes many could have been prevented with better life choices (long or short term) but those people do not come in all at once. Though they are now because they were scared to come in while co-vid was a huge problem so now that part is catching up, but not withstanding co-vid most of the time people who come into hospitals due to poor choices are not coming in and overrunning the hospitals all at once.

The problem with this is that there is no distinction made between people being hospitalized with COVID as opposed to people being hospitalized because of COVID. Guy gets in an auto accident and is rushed to the ER and tests positive for COVID, he’s automatically labeled as a patient hospitalized with COVID. Many people are hospitalized several times a year for a wide variety of reasons and if they come in testing positive for COVID, they’re labeled as a patient hospitalized with COVID. There’s no distinction being made between people who are being hospitalized because they have COVID from those who are hospitalized for other reasons but have COVID, so the numbers of people in the ICU as a result of COVID are greatly being inflated.

I don’t know, I can’t testify to what I haven’t observed myself. If I did it would be purely speculation.

I was talking about not withstanding co-vid in other words go back to 2019 when co-vid was not a thing.

I’ve been trying to find out how I can apply for a religious exemption from the COVID vaccination mandate, I’m wondering if anyone has any information on how to go about this process. I’m not interested in debating if someone likes it or not or if they think religious mandates shouldn’t be allowed, that’s not the topic of this thread so please refrain from such comments in this thread.

Religion aside .... do we not have the right to decide what drugs do or do not go into our bodies? I'd say we do.

I, __________________, declare religious exemption from the COVID-19 vaccination mandate. Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, I attest to having sincerely held personal religious beliefs which will not permit me to abide by this mandate. Additionally, I am not willing to describe these personal religious beliefs for the reasonable fear that if others have knowledge of them it may engender discrimination against me and/or my family. I am aware that reasonable accommodations may have to be made regarding this declaration of religious exemption, and am willing to discuss accommodations that would be necessary and reasonable in order to come to an agreement. Finally, I expect this letter to remain confidential, and its contents to be disclosed only to those for whom there is an express need.
