The vaccine is mandated as a condition for employment. Is it different from universities requiring vaccines for their students (Indiana University already won a legal challenge -- https://www.scotusblog.com/2021/08/barrett-leaves-indiana-un...) or military personnel having to get a battery of shots when they enlist? All those requirements should survive or fall together.

Mandated not by their employer, but by the federal government's executive branch is the question at hand.

Public schools in many (most? all?) municipalities require kids be vaccinated against several things before being allowed to attend school. This has been the case since well before I was born. This is a government setting the requirement. Now, perhaps it is not legal for the federal government to set this sort of requirement. But maybe it is.

Which is state-mandated, not federal, and done by passed law, not by executive order IIUC. That's still a huge difference.
