SLI Medical President Speaks with Detroit News and AP about the Need for Needles and Syringes amid Presidential Mandate

NOVI, MICHIGAN, UNITED STATES , October 4, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- SLI Medical Founder and President Josh Kaplan spoke with The Detroit News and Associated Press about ramping up inoculation and testing capacity in the wake of President Biden’s Executive Order requiring businesses with over 100 employees to be vaccinated or test employees weekly.

The Executive Order – estimated to impact over 80 million workers – is welcome news as the country is seeing a troubling rise in COVID-19 infections. But as the Final Rule is issued in the coming weeks by the Department of Labor, Kaplan called for greater clarity. At present, it is unclear whether businesses, the federal government, state or local governments, or a combination of these will bear the responsibility of implementing the Rule.

“I think the guidelines are unclear at this point,” said Josh Kaplan. “A lot of businesses don’t want to get caught with their pants down. They need to know how to respond to the ever-changing world of COVID. I have employees that are both vaccinated and unvaccinated, and figuring out how to navigate the waters of our business climate right now with keeping my employees safe while limiting liability, limiting exposure is probably the most important business topic that exists right now, to me.”
