" informed Defendants in writing that she was a Christian and that her sincerely held and heartfelt religious beliefs prohibited her from being vaccinated," the suit reads. When asked by management for additional information, Williams said she hadn't received any vaccinations since she had"a bad reaction to one" at age 12 and that her daughter, who was 2 at the time, hadn't received any vaccinations either.
Williams' exemption request was denied in October 2021 and she was subsequently terminated a week later after refusing to get vaccinated, the suit says.
