For months, Molly Moon Neitzel, the founder and chief executive of Molly Moon’s Homemade Ice Cream in Seattle, has debated whether to require her 180 employees to be vaccinated. On Thursday, when President Biden announced rules that would mandate such requirements, she felt relieved. “We have six to 10 who have chosen not to be vaccinated yet,” she said. The move, which thrusts the U.S. government and businesses into a partnership with little precedent and no playbook, will affect some 80 million workers. Like many businesspeople, she wants her employees vaccinated, but is uncertain what impact the new requirement will have on the company’s procedures, workers and bottom line.
