I’m there, reluctantly. I don’t see any other way because healthcare workers can’t socially distance and provide the same level of care, and we know the vaccines lower transmission. Infants and small children are still unvaccinated and have to be protected.

I’m even squeamish about weekly testing, but understand why they want to give it a reasonable shot. We’re going to get to a point where some people who value their personal health choice on this vaccine need to find a different line of work or move to a workplace or state without this mandate. Freedom isn’t free, is what we are always told.

Agree, I think this makes a ton of sense. As another poster on this thread said, freedom isn’t free. You have the right to make a personal choice not to get vaccinated, but you don’t have the right to work in patient-facing, high-contact healthcare jobs, and create risk for others. It would be great if strictly voluntary policies worked, but at this point that doesn’t seem to be feasible. It makes perfect sense for healthcare systems to reduce the potential for illness by requiring vaccines. Those who choose not to get vaccinated are welcome to find jobs elsewhere, nothing is being forced on them. BTW, many states already require health workers to be up to date on measles, chicken pox and hepatitis vaccines, and others require pneumonia and flu shots as well.

I saw a stat that nearly 40% of nyc healthcare workers weren’t vaxxed, which was incredible to me.

Didn’t Fauci say half of the NIH employees were vaxxed in May? Seems odd to me these people aren’t vaxxed at higher rates

That is interesting. I would be curious to see it by level. I was listening to a radio show a few weeks ago and a hospital administrator from TX was talking about how in his hospital at the Doctor level mostly all are vaccinated, but as you move to Nurses and then various support staff the percent vaccinated gets lower and lower.

So would be worth seeing first what roles are included as "HC workers" and the breakdown of which of those roles are driving the 40% or 50% that's not vaccinated.

One year ago this weekend my mother was dying of Covid 2000 miles away from me. On Mother's Day we were told to make a decision to either consent to an invasive surgery that may do nothing or put her on hospice. She died on her own while my siblings and I tried to decide. I need to crawl into a cave this weekend until this holiday passes.
