Oso planning to go pro
Get the flu shot or get fired is an actual thing at hospitals? Honestly never heard that.
Started around 2010. She had never gotten the shot cuz she never got the flu. But she had no problem doing it once it was mandated.And, really, it is just common sense. The last thing sick or compromised people in the hospital need is a nurse who is going to infect them with some bug. Same thing with the Covid shot. If nurses don't want to get it, show them the door immediately.
Of course that’s the best (utopian) solution. But we don’t live in Utopia. “Solutions” end up being very much less than perfect. But if my wife has a massive heart attack and needs the paddles and my choices are an unvaxxed EMT in 3 minutes or a vaxxed one 10 minutes later I know which one I choose.
Did she do her own research? Read Facebook? Try Lysol?
Let's give old rocks for brains here the benefit of the doubt and say he's got 10-15 brain cells to rub together. But I'd be giving him far too much credit. You and Lenny are creating hypotheticals that don't exist. Boogeymen of your own creation.
You’ve got to be one of the top 5 A-holes on this board. Who the F do you think you are? You need a break from this board man
Disagree. Take off points for not being specific about who his top 5 are. 1/2 the board is wondering AITA and can't decide whether they will be hurt or excited if named.
Lenny, I do think that folks are a little too flippant about the consequences of vaccine mandates. It remains to be seen how it washes out in workforce reduction numbers, but considering these staffs are overworked and understaffed as it is, any reduction isn't nothing.That being said, the mandates are still worth it to me. The marginal utility of the workers who will get the vaccine that otherwise wouldn't have, plus knowing that healthcare staffs are entirely vaxxed, offsets the likely workforce reductions based on everything I've seen. Plus there's kind of a philosophical red line on this - a "we aren't going to be the country that entertains anti-science sentiments to the point where we have unvaccinated healthcare workers in the middle of a pandemic" kind of thing. If you don't set that line somewhere and take the pain that comes with enforcing it, I think that creeps and creeps and creeps.
4 out 10, only redeemed by ice cream man.
Administrators simply can't afford to run a medical facility that allows their employees to be unvaccinated in the middle of a pandemic that already has killed 700K+ Americans.
MikeI don’t know if we’re “in the middle of a pandemic” or near its end. But please explain to me why administrators suddenly “can’t afford to run a medical facility that allows their employees to be unvaccinated”. More than half of the 700,000 deaths have occurred AFTER the vaccine became available to health care professionals. Why could they afford the last 350,000 but not any more?
It’s a process. It was impossible to get everyone vaccinated a month or two after they were available.
And you bring absolutely nothing to the conversation. Ever. You think you're clever. You come to a gun fight with a water balloon. Your only redeeming asset is that you're so self unaware that it is funny to the rest of the board.Thanks for being a continuing source of humor for the rest of us.<3
You are an angry bitter man. What is it? Couldn’t make it in health science field so you try to make up for it here? Big fail Your projection is frightening… thank you for validating my points.
A month or two? OK. But every hospital worker who wanted to get vaccinated could have had the shot at least several months ago. Where were the administrators? Crickets. Where was President Biden? This mandate idea is a very recent change of opinion on their part.
In his mind:1. Fluffy2. Pakuni3. Tsmith4. BLM5. Yours TrulyOdd that he thinks that we're 'A-holes' (sic) because the only thing he ever sees of us is the sweat from our nutsacks dripping on his head as we repeatedly dunk on him.
6 out of 10. I can sense a lot of projection in this post. Good to see the ellipses back.
Why do you think he’s all of the sudden using caps and punctuation?
