While generally people didn't get fired for refusing the vaccine, there were exceptions. New York City actually enforced vaccine mandates for both private and public sector workers (although they lifted the mandate for the private sector and didn't do much enforcement). So there were cases where employers fired people for not getting the vaccine, without giving them the chance to just get tested periodically instead.
But I believe this was the exception to the rule. And a judge ordered NYC to reinstate workers fired over the mandate.

But the Biden COVID vaccination mandate (which I believe the Supreme Court struck down) allowed federal workers to retain their jobs if they got tested weekly. And I believe many municipalities followed that guideline. So the general point that the Federal Government didn't directly fire people because they didn't get the covid vaccine is true.
