Sage Steele didn’t want to get Covid vaccine

Sage Steele said on a podcast that aired Wednesday that the company’s Covid-19 vaccine mandate is “sick,” and she felt “defeated” after getting the shot so that she could keep her job. “Well, I got my shot today,” Steele told former NFL quarterback Jay Cutler on his “Uncut With Jay Cutler” podcast. “I just I didn’t want to do it,” she said. “But I work for a company that mandates it, and I have until Sept. 30 to get it done, or I’m out.” “I respect everyone’s decision. I really do. But to mandate it is sick,” Steele said. “It’s one thing with masks, and I don’t have a problem with that. It’s another thing when you force this.”

“It’s scary to me in many ways, but I have a job that I love and frankly a job that I need,” she said regarding her decision to get the vaccine right before the deadline. “I’m not surprised that it got to this point especially with Disney, I mean a global company like that.” Steele added that the experience of getting the vaccine was “emotional.” “It’s funny, everyone else has their ‘hey look, here’s my card,'” but Steele said she didn’t feel triumphant. “I think the mandate is what I really have an issue with,” Steele said. “I do know, for me personally, I feel I feel like defeated.”
