Because none of the Covid vaccines are FDA approved. Pfizer is the closest- they have formally applied for final approval.

But it won’t be until after the Moderna and the J & J are FDA approved that employers can legally fire people who refuse to vaccinate.

We live in interesting times. I think we will see a lot more social unrest when the anti-Vaxxers figure out they are on the stupid side of the issue.
