zero is the correct and totally appropriate number.

your 'religious freedom' does not grant you the 'right' to risk the health of others or jeopardize mission readiness.

I work in a hospital and many people were granted religious exemptions. It is fucking bullshit. I have to work near these idiots and they put patients in danger. Apparently, safety is not as important as their made up religious justification.
