Do your research and learn that the formulations available today are still EUA.

According to a post on the FDA website dated August 23, 2021 Comirnaty® was FDA Approved for use for by people 16 years old and older.

The office is a modern day ghost town. It is very strange and eerie to walk some of the floors. Makes you wonder what they are going to do with those buildings: 1. sell them 2. force people back 3. leave them empty shells

I have zero respect for the executive team at Cisco now. Especially how they handed the vaccine policies and how they are still holding on to them. Very polarizing environment as an employee. I have given up attending all-hands meetings etc.

Technically my office is open now (vaccine required) but there are literally 1 or two people on the entire floor at a given time. Lol.

I usually attend as diamond partner but refuse to go to events requiring experimental injections. Coercive medical experimentation. Although it’s not CISCO it’s who owns CISCO,
It’s “who owns the world”. Most corporations (media dividing and molding into two managed sides) are owned by Vanguard, Vanguard is controlled by small number of elite bankers bent on subjugation and population reduction. What good is Full Stack Observability for those that can’t see reality. Mass formation, color war, coup at all levels. Middle class is a burden for Elite. Complex yet nothing more simple when R CCIE level at reality. Is there a site that show Free companies?

Cisco will continue to push out people in favor of sheeple. All must speak alike, all must think alike, all must act alike. You decide the price of freedom.

I am communicating with Cisco and would like to take legal action if their position remains unchanged. Being angry is not enough. We need to take action.

Please look at this post here and reach out to me if you can help.

Cisco Live is turning into a generic marketing-focused event anyway. Sessions are half the length compared to previous occurrences. This show should go full virtual, period. Who fancies falling asleep in a session shortly after a lousy lunch? And Vegas, seriously?

Amen. Mobile World Congress is also next week. Cannot attend without a vaxx. Cannot enter Cisco booth without a vaxx. There are a heap of Covid measures, including a request to test daily.
You wanna be sitting in a log cabin like the UNABOMBER and rail at the world - go for it. In the forest, no one can hear you scream.
“They have cut a massive amount of the sessions and denied every speaker I know who submitted a session.” - yeah, me too.

"If customers are excluded from things like Cisco Live, they aren't going to continue buying Cisco."

First, show me a link between Cisco Live and sales volumes. Hint: there isn't one. Two years without CL yet record quarters. The time of gigantic in person tech trade shows has passed, it's a thing from the 90s. Do you think every AWS customer attends Re:invent? Second, only a small minority of customers are excluding themselves from public events by choosing to not get vaccinated. Again, freedom means having choices. And accepting every choice has consequences. Once you understand that, things will clear up a bit for you.

"No, they're like you just a vocal minority. Who cares if they don't attend Cisco Live as long as they buy Cisco gear. Move on dude, 75% of the population is vaccinated."

I don't think you get it. If customers are excluded from things like Cisco Live, they aren't going to continue buying Cisco. And it's not some "fringe minority" either. Even if it was it only takes a few or even one person to sway a deal to another vendor. And Cisco has already lost some big ones over this.

So many people including those in this thread are bashing peoples intelligence, choices, freedoms, etc. Wake up! (maybe Dave Chipmunk)

"The people of Cisco are strong, smart"

You provide a great counter example. You're as average and manipulated as they come. Your victim attitude is simply pathetic. Whining anonymously here hoping to find sympathy is what you call strong? Please.

The people of Cisco are strong, smart, resourceful people. We can defeat the tyranny that is at our doorstep. If we don't defeat it - our children will not know what freedom means.

They will have no freedom.

We barely have any left currently.

Canada - our friendly neighbor to the north is currently a police state. Little old ladies are being mu---red for peacefully protesting (with music, party, and bounce houses). If a country doesn't even allow peaceful protest - there is no freedom left there.

I was going to attend Cisco LIVE but then I did my own research and found out that VXLAN is a liberal hoax!

I’m going to CPAC instead.

I'll accept the vaccines once a non-EUA vaccine is actually available to the public. Do your research and learn that the formulations available today are still EUA.

Taking everything away from a person until they submit is not a choice. It is coercion.

The tyranny is increasing by the week. We are fighting for your freedom too. I love you, whether you call me an id--t or not. I pray for you, and hope you will see you are being manipulated.

We are all one people. You are important. We all matter.

"Forcing medical proceedures"

I can't recall the number of times I've been told to not argue with the clueless, yet here I am. You're truly a special kind of imbecile. You don't even possess the required number of neurons to tell nobody is forcing anything on anybody. You don't seem to understand Cisco Live is a paid event you don't have to go to. Anyway I can't sink down to your level, you're just too id--tic. Keep playing the minority victim with sympathetic audiences. Easier to do than assuming the consequences of one's choices i suppose.

"We believe in freedom and choice. "

You have the choice you imbecile! Nobody is forcing you to attend Cisco Live. Comparing this to WW2 Germany take a special kind of ignorant cretin.

Like most things: Cisco is behind the curve. Even the hardcore covidians are finally getting tired of playing along. But, this will all end in time for Cisco Live. Sleepy is going to claim victory March 1st and grant us back our freedoms during State of the Union. It's all about the science. The political science.

Have you ever been part of a "minority"? Any minority? Even if you are completely WASP - you've likely experienced a time where you were in a smaller, sidelined group.

Writting off 25% of your country's population because they are the minority is not only cruel, but also disfunctional. Those people matter.

We are not Na-i Germany building the master race of only people who like to be stabbed in the arm countless times with untested medical proceedures.

We believe in freedom and choice. A life without those things is not worth living.

Siding with the group of people that are interested in coersion is not in Cisco's long term interests. The people corercing and forcing others are NEVER the good guys.

Oh noez Cisco is having major issues with turnover of highly skilled employees over this111

Are there any old timers at Cisco that can chime in complaining about that pesky Spanish flu? It would be good to break the monotony a bit.

"Shouldn't Cisco be inclusive and listen to them?"

No, they're like you just a vocal minority. Who cares if they don't attend Cisco Live as long as they buy Cisco gear. Move on dude, 75% of the population is vaccinated.

Did you not read that customers are partners are being alienated? Shouldn't Cisco be inclusive and listen to them?

Cisco is having major issues with turnover of highly skilled employees over this, and now customers and partners are turning away. And don't worry, Cisco will still have discriminatory policies in 2040 to complain about.

Please resume putting your head in the sand.

I think the ones with victim mentality that frequent this site will be harping about covid in the year 2040.

Seriously another thread about this?!! The first 200 weren't enough?

Calling it now, how many speakers have passed out while leading any Cisco Live presentation?

Chuck and the ELT are a cancer destroying cisco. Did you expect anything else? They have cut a massive amount of the sessions and denied every speaker I know who submitted a session. They are doing everything to make the events a failure and alienate customers to push their political agenda.

Speak for yourself OP. People that attend don’t have a problem with it.

Oh please not that again. That ship has sailed. You don't wanna attend, don't. It's as simple as that. No amount of ranting and complaining is gonna change the requirements. Take it or leave it.
