Refusing the vaccine?????

[GromsDad]

Was just listening to an interview with an official from my state and the individual was worried about people refusing the vaccination. He specifically cited one of the state's psychiatric hospitals where the vaccine was made fully available yet only 42% of the staff elected to take it. The rest of the staff refused. I've heard a similar story from a friend who works at a local hospital that a significant number of the medical and nursing staff declined to get vaccinated.

In the same interview it was said that 80-90% of the population needs to get vaccinated in order for this thing to go away.

Your thoughts.

I think it's fair to make a vaccination a term of employment

I'm fine with people refusing it as long as they understand their employment is at will and
it may limit their ability to enjoy some of the perks of modern life....school, air travel, etc

For full herd immunity. 50% will still cut transmission and case load significantly. If dumb people want to get Covid I’m ok with it.

Employers can do it.

Schools already do it.

My employer mandates the flu vaccine, but if you opt out (or opted out) you had to wear a mask at work (I think). I just got shot #2 of Moderna and I felt pretty damn sick with chills and body aches for about 10 hours on the day after I got it. Thinking that's a positive, that my immune system is being "ramped up" so to speak.

My friend at the hospital said the first shot was quite painful for a couple of days at the site and that a lot of his colleagues had the feverish symptoms after the second shot. A couple felt sick for up to three days.

That's the free market at work.

Fixed.

Ha.

 

[Woke AF]

At the current local rate and my place in line I can get the first shot in 10 or so months.
So much winning from this best healthcare in the world country.

I have been told by numerous sources who have received vaccinations this way that with the rate of no-shows (20% in LA), if you show up at a vaccination site an hour or so before closing, you will get one. This is in LA county anyway.

I agree with this. Although I also feel that if someone doesn't want the vaccine, let someone else who feels they need it more have it.

Let Darwinism take it's course, like the Free Market it works great if you step aside and let it do it's thing

free market

employment is at-will in essentially every state

this is not a controversial notion

You are consistently struggling with the fact that when you decided to live here, you signed a social contract in which you're explicitly told that you can't harm other people.

There are rules, you can't do whatever you want.

Assimilate or GTFO

And then shamelessly worships the most authoritarian President we ever had.
