LISTEN: STL County Police officer challenges COVID-19 vaccine mandate

St. Louis County Police Officer Ben Cehic joined Marc Cox to explain his situation in the police department as an individual who is not vaccinated against COVID-19.

Cehic says the County's policy involves weekly testing and, "at the same time, we have to wear this mask. So what does that look like? We sit in a roll call room you see 5 or 6 or 7 officers, and you'll see 3 or 4 of them wearing a mask. Imagine how you feel sitting there."

He says the policy allows officers to, "gauge the room and see who is and who isn't on my side of the fence, just based on this policy."
