Gov Abbot Signs EO Prohibiting Vaccine Mandates

Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed an executing order on October 11 that prohibits vaccine mandates:

1. No entity in Texas can compel receipt of a COVID-19 vaccine by any individual, including an employee or a consumer, who objects to such vaccination for any reason of personal conscience, based on a religious belief, or for medical reasons, including prior recovery from COVID-19. I hereby suspend all relevant statutes to the extent necessary to enforce this prohibition.

Given the recent arguments regarding natural immunity, I do like the inclusion of “including prior recovery from COVID-19”.
