Actor Rockmond Dunbar is set to go on trial over claims he was fired from his role in TV series “9-1-1” due to his refusal to get vaccinated against COVID-19, citing a fictional religious exemption. The Congregation of Universal Wisdom, led by Dr. Walter Schilling, teaches that injecting chemicals defies natural law. Disney’s lawyers argue Dunbar fabricated the excuse to avoid vaccination. The trial is a reminder of the COVID era’s safety protocols and rules that were eventually discarded in 2023.
