"It's bodily autonomy to decide for yourself what goes in and out your body," she said, "and what happens to it seems to only go so far when it's a political agenda."

And then she died of COVID.

Maybe getting into the health care field is not for you if you don't want to actually be helpful.

After attending a Pro-Life rally.
 
2021-07-30 7:19:53 PM  
Protesters are traveling across the state, from hospital to hospital, to rally against mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations for healthcare workers.

OK so the antivax unemployed are going around pretending that they have jobs at these hospitals? Burn these people with acid and hot oil like medieval castle invaders.

Agreed, fark these assholes. Also it's not suprising to see a loud minority being a source of disinformation.

The law allows employers to require it.
Healthcare companies don't want the liability, so they are going to push for it as a mandatory requirement.
If they didn't, they could face lawsuits from every patient who dies from it because they didn't 'take steps to prevent infecting patients by not having a fully vaccinated staff'

You don't like it? Go work somewhere else. Simple as that.

Round them up. Throw them in quarantine camps until they die.

It's not that hard. You get a couple shoulder shots and you're done.

The only excuse from here on is cowardice. Just say "I'm a baby who's afraid of needles." We'll understand. We'll laugh at you, but we'll understand. Baby.

One said the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shared theories, rather than facts, about the virus.

Cretin who doesn't understand basic science.

"It's bodily autonomy to decide for yourself what goes in and out your body," she said, "and what happens to it seems to only go so far when it's a political agenda."

Idiot participating in a political movement against facts, reason and public health. The only political agenda here is hers.

When asked about the extensive vaccine testing and effectiveness data, the woman disputed the extent of testing and the level of the vaccines' effectiveness.

Also a conspiracy theory spouting moron.

Andrew Mitchell, a surgical technician at the hospital, had adhesive capsulitis -- also known as frozen shoulder -- after receiving the vaccine. The condition is associated with improper vaccine administration.
He acknowledged those types of reactions are "extremely rare." But he adds, everyone should be able to decide for themselves.


Knows perfectly well that it's both extremely rare and not the fault of the vaccine yet protests it regardless. Dishonest.

But another hospital worked who encountered the protestors called the demonstration dangerous.
"I work here! And you are putting me in danger!" he shouted.
"I think this is absurd," the man told WRAL. "I think these people are absolutely out of their minds to do this especially at the entrance of a hospital."


Smart person. I congratulate you, sir, for having successfully achieved the necessary level of knowledge and responsibility required to function in a modern, civilised society. That may not sound like grounds to congratulate someone, but with so many around who have failed to do so it has become laudable. This one's OK.

Exactly. And the reason is that they violated the Hippocratic Oath they took to get this job. They are not being asked to be a guinea pig, nor to sacrifice there hippo ass to invasion. The vaccine has, by use, been proven to do the right thing, they just need to. I was required to wear a hardhat and safety googles in my work. They messed up my style, but I did for the job. ..So should they. If they can't be safe, they shouldn't be asked to get paid for being unsafe.

Ask their names.
Visit the website for the state Boards overseeing their licenses (Nursing, Medical, etc.) and verify their license numbers, which are publicly available.
Lodge a formal complaint against their licenses for unprofessional conduct that places public health at risk and is not evidence-based.
Watch them change their tune in a hurry when the Board opens an investigation, which they are usually required to do with formal complaints.

I'm a healthcare professional, and people like this should NOT be working in healthcare.

The protestors should all be required to give each incoming COVID patient a sloppy, open-mouthed kiss for good luck before the patient goes in to the hospital. That should cut down on the protestors pretty effectively.

Merely because somebody else is temporarily sucking more doesn't change the fact that Duke Sucks.

Some of the anti-vaxxers are Duke health care workers. Some are family/friends of Duke health care workers. Thus Duke still sucks

If these people actually believed the shiate they are spouting, which they don't, the next pro choice rally should be huge.

Would love to hear this woman who claims her husband is a nurse expand on "not seeing good things"

Course maybe her husband craves seeing people die and the vax is cutting into his enjoyment.

At this point anything is possible.

So they travel in packs. I suppose we'll witness demonstrations going from 100 protestors to 1 protestor without any self-awareness.
