OSHA COVID mandate warns lying about vax status punishable by $10K fine, up to 6 months in prison

Audrey Conklin  |  5 Nov 2021


The Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA) new vaccine requirement for businesses with more than 100 employees warns of a potential $10,000 fine and up to six months of imprisonment for individuals who lie about their vaccination status.

OSHA announced the new vaccine rule Thursday that will require certain U.S. employers to ensure all their workers are either fully vaccinated by Jan. 4 or subject to weekly testing and mask wearing.

The new emergency standard is implemented under the authority granted by the Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Act, which "provides for fines up to $10,000, and imprisonment for not more than six months, or both, for anyone who ‘knowingly makes any false statement, representation, or certification’ in any application, record, report, plan, or other document" pursuant to the new rule.

The government empowering itself to do this is the same government that can redefine the term 'vaccinated' at the drop of a hat.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

How odd. A person can lie about voting status and have no repercussions in most states. But lie about this and you will do time.

What a world...what a world.

Yet violent felons are released without bail in a matter of hours, and will have their crimes plea-bargained away to next-to-no-time-served...

What if a person IDENTIFIES as vaccinated?

From this point forward, I plead the Fifth.  With government continuously updating its definition of 'vaccinated', there is no way to know if what I say today is supported by whatever the definition happens to be that day.

True story:
I'd never heard of "Aaron Rodgers" until he was on Jeopardy.
Even then, I had to ask my sister "where did he come from?"
