Since this is a new and ever changing subject I wish the time allotment had been 1.5 - 2 hours instead of just 1. There is so much confusion and I'm sure several questions went unanswered due to the time. Otherwise, I thought the training was great and the information was very helpful.

Really frustrating listening to a biased presenter on the vaccine matter. Some employers do follow the science and there are legit reasons to not want the vaccine - medical or otherwise. Please work on asking your presenters to be objective and present the facts only.
