Asking a question here for the smart ones we have onboard! [View all]

Would it be legal and possible for insurance companies to announce that they WILL NOT cover hospital treatment care (of Covid-19) for the UNVACCINATED? I mean set a DATE that say after Jan 1st. 2022, NO VAX? NO COVERAGE! THIS , i think would make people think twice about the shot!
