Will soaps start firing actors who aren't fully vaccinated?

[Liberty City]

Well, the fact he is STILL in Hawaii speaks to me... he's either being killed off or written off as "hostage" by Cyrus.

They wasted the other side of Jax this whole time.  He wasn’t a saint- he was a corporate raider.  They just put him in this box and moved on.  He’s just a placeholder now.

He is happy to be back in Hawaii and they are asking people to stop traveling there due to COVID.  I’m sure they would like him to be vaccinated too.

Has he stated if he actually has or has not been vaccinated?  Because many of these folks in the media have been but are still pushing this agenda.

I haven't heard either way, but I think in many ways he shot himself in the foot for taking this extreme stance.

[Liberty City]

He has not... but given his stance and continued IG stories, I'd fight it hard to believe he is vaccinated. And considering he seems to be firmly in Hawaii right now, I'd think it's safe to say he's OFF cast or on a very extended break to "cool down."

Maybe it is the Labor Day break BUT if I speculate, since I am convinced (with no evidence) that November sweeps are going to be the best time for "Sonny" to "return" and yet Jason/Carly are about to be married already and they are showing Jax starting to piece things together, I am going to guess (with no evidence) that maybe something is going to happen to Jax when he tries to interrupt the wedding to tell everyone about Mike, presumably by being caught in the Cyrus crossfire that he warned about so many times (which in turn feels like soap foreshadowing).
I'd be surprised if they pulled the extended coma trick again but I feel that, even without knowing the BTS stuff, a lot of the red flags are converging story-wise.

Oh he’s an absolute idiot. But none of this- masks, social distancing, or the vaccine should have been politicized.  It’s public health.  I’m sick of these folks.

There's probably not much future in television for actors who refuse to be vaccinated.  (There's also probably not much future in television for an actor who calls his show's few remaining fans "morons", lol.)

With the mandate coming down today about businesses with over 100 employees requiring vaccinations, I wonder now how it will affect the soaps.

[Wendy]

I would think, since it is a federal law, the state would have to comply.

[amybrickwallace]

I guess I should have phrased it better - I meant to say which unvaccinated actors will cry foul and quit, and those who will put up and shut up.

[Wendy]

Well, we already know about Ingo.

Camila Banus on Days is another.

But who knows?

How sad is it that this particular topic is much more interesting than any storyline currently on soaps?

Not a soap but still cool

That's very good news.
