To my knowledge, in the US, it's corporations that control the government, not the other way around.

I believe businesses implemented mandates because they knew that they were otherwise risking large numbers of sickness among the workforce, ultimately leading to loss of profit.

We've actually seen a pretty big example of that happening in Germany:

1,500 workers infected, production shut down, forced to install HEPA filters before they were allowed to reopen.

To be completely fair, it sounds like it might have been related to the way the ventilation systems work in meat production sites: Air being constantly recirculated to save on cooling, with viruses surviving longer in the cold air...

Anyhow. I wonder what motivation you think governments have that leads them to implement vaccination mandates, other than a combination of protecting the economy (corpo profits) and protecting public health.
