Can someone explain to me why Governor Newsom is back a challenge to the vaccine mandate?

7. Sorry I can't back this

“[Federal receiver J. Clark] Kelso and his medical staff argue that the virus, which they believe is mostly spread from prison staff, has caused more than 50,000 inmate infections and over 20,000 employees to test positive for COVID-19,” That has resulted in the deaths of 240 inmates statewide and 39 staff members.”

This is the main reason right here, testing is simply not as effective as the vaccines. The prisoners can't be spreading it because not only do they not get visitors but when they are moved they are quarantined for two weeks. There is also the cost of testing these employees a few times a week, it isn't worth it to keep these ignorant neanderthals. Finally it is bad optics that the only group he is backing to be exempt is one that donated $1.7 million to his election campaign.
