Just a moment...
has an analysis, but it is behind a paywall. The company did have a religious exemption policy, but Catholicism and the Pope recommending getting the vaccine denying the request, which was countered with a shoddily written corporate policy by the plaintiff. Enough for a jury to want to blame a corporation as a populist view.
So we are getting closer to the situation where jurors will vote for punishments if they can be part of the same class/status as the plaintiff(s), not to be confused with a class action lawsuit. This becomes dangerous as a jury of your peers in financial punishment cases can snowball to bankrupt a company.
So yes, this precedent may just really bankrupt the private insurance / reinsurance industry if the awards continue like this. . be careful what you wish for. .
One more year of BCBS for us and then over to Medicare
