What do you mean could be anybody asks me you'll be getting sued... fuck your scam just look at he money and the contracts signed between Pfizer and world governments round the world, this is the biggest scam I ever seen in my days,

Take the fucks for everything they have.

But it's OK to restrict access as to where they spend that disposable income from their wage.. NoVaccinePassports

Just mark them down and fire them for something else. Easily sorted.

Course you have to be careful! It’s unconstitutional!
