Wisconsin lawmakers look to add natural immunity to state’s coronavirus rulesLegislation would require businesses to accept proof of natural immunity instead of vaccination proof or regular coronavirus testing.Benjamin Yount | January 6, 2022 | 11:42pmepublicans at the Wisconsin Capitol are moving to allow people who’ve already had COVID-19 to get credit for overcoming the virus.
The Assembly Committee on Constitution and Ethics is discussing AB 675, which would require businesses in the state to accept proof of natural immunity instead of vaccination proof or regular coronavirus testing.
“We can’t force people to get vaccinated, and I certainly would be strongly against that,” said Rep. David Murphy, R-Greenvile, said at a hearing o the measure Wednesday. “So that leaves people in the situation of either being forced to do something they don’t want to do, or they leave their job.”
The push comes as companies across the state wait to see if President Joe Biden’s vaccine mandate for all businesses with 100 or more employees is upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court, which is scheduled to hear arguments Friday on lawsuits challenging the mandate. . . .
