To please his Democrat betters in the swamp, petty tyrant and Allegheny County (Pittsburgh, PA) Executive Rich Fitzgerald issued a vaccine mandate for his County workers effective Dec 1, 2021. Fitzgerald’s mandate requirements exceeded even those of Joe Biden’s. Biden’s mandate made exceptions for those willing to submit to regular Covid testing. Fitzgerald’s mandate excluded any such testing option. Fitzgerald’s decree was simple: you will take the shots or you’re finished. Against their better judgment many previously unvaccinated County workers, in fear of losing their paychecks, went ahead and took the shots. But others refused and were fired. I refused too. At almost 60 years of age, and falling just four years short of full pension, I’m currently unemployed with no source of income.

Fitzgerald’s Mandate

The stated purpose of Fitzgerald’s mandate was to prevent transmission of the COVID virus. So I contacted his office shortly after he issued his mandate and pointed out that even CDC Director Rochelle Walensky had stated that the vaccines can’t prevent transmission. But Fitzgerald didn’t care about that. I explained that even Anthony Fauci had said that “vaccines could actually make people worse.” I know that this is hard for many to believe, so here it is again: Fauci said that “vaccines could actually make things worse.” But Fitzgerald didn’t care about that either. Anyone who refused to take a vaccine that can’t prevent transmission but could make things worse needed to go.

No Exemptions

Fitzgerald had claimed that he would consider exemptions to his mandates. But he now refuses to say how many exemptions he has granted. It’s quite possible that he hasn’t granted any exemptions at all. I know many terminated former employees of Allegheny County who submitted requests for religious and medical exemptions. All were denied. My own request for a medical exemption was also denied. It was written and signed by my physician. His name and contact information have been redacted to protect him from the evil Democrats:

But this didn’t matter to Rich Fitzgerald. Against my doctor’s advice I had to take a vaccine that not only doesn’t prevent transmission but could also make things worse, or I had to go. My request for an exemption was denied on December 29, 2021. I was given five days to take a shot or else!

Fired

I was fired from my job on January 4, 2022 for refusing to take an experimental vaccine that doesn’t work: ​

​Why?

Many other workers in Allegheny County and across the nation also lost their jobs. Hard working Americans have been fired from their jobs because they refused to take an experimental medical treatment that doesn’t work. But why? Why are politicians forcing people to take experimental vaccines that don’t work? The answer lies in power and money. Rich Fitzgerald, now known throughout the Pittsburgh region as Filthy Rich, has a career to advance. His third and final term as Allegheny County Executive expires at the end of 2023. He will need help from the Democrat swamp to land another position of power; a power that he will no doubt abuse for his own benefit.
