My country's government has, in a manner of speaking, granted employers permission to terminate unvaccinated individuals, from next year onwards. It has ruled that from next year onwards, unvaccinated individuals will not be allowed to return to their places of work without a negative test result for COVID-19, which will only be valid for 24 hours and that the cost of the test is to be borne by the individuals. In other words, it has made it such that those like me, who are unvaccinated, will only be able to return to their places of work next year, if they paid to be tested on a daily basis and I should add that the tests cost anywhere from 50 to 150 dollars each. My country's government has also stated explicitly that should an employer decide to terminate an employee because of the employee's inability to be present at their place of work, it would not be considered an instance of wrongful dismissal. I have been adamant about not becoming vaccinated this entire time but having learned of this development, I am having second thoughts. The only way to be exempt from this ruling is to show evidence of one's being medically ineligible for vaccination and I am not certain how to go about this. As a last resort, I was considering the only non-mrna vaccine recognised in my country, at present, Sinovac-CoronaVac. I would really appreciate some advice as to what to do next. Thank you.
