sure they are going to find another job. not all hospitals are mandating the vaccine and they are paying hefty bonuses for new hires.

It’s required for all hospitals that take Medicare and Medicaid, which is essentially all hospitals in the country.

Required by the hospitals vs mandated by the state, is there a difference in the result? I have relatives that work in hospitals, does that count or do I need to work in the field for this complicated issue. An annual flu vaccine is a requirement.


Also to enter schools in NY students must be vaccinated against Diptheria, tetanus, and pertussis; polio; measles, mumps, and rubella; Hepatitis B; chickenpox,” but a vaccine against a virus for healthcare workers in the middle of a contagious pandemic is a bridge too far, give me a break.

Yes they could move to Florida, even the largest hospital system in Texas is requiring mandates. I sincerely doubt these hospital workers want to move from upstate NY, we will see.

At this point, I think it should be legally regarded as a bona fide occupational qualification to have been vaccinated if you’re in the health care industry. These are the people who literally work around people who can least afford to catch Rona, and like staph infections, it would be cringy knowing that it’s being transmitted within the hospital without taking due precaution to prevent it.

Actually that is 96% of the 301 physicians they asked, not 96% of all physicians.

Read militarybenefits,info "Coronavirus Cases in the US Military."

It will give you a break down of Covid cases in each branch and how much they've gone up.

Question. Why do you think we now have a vaccine mandate for Covid for the military? Do you think it would be helpful or hurtful to our nation if lets say a big portion of all branches were infected with Covid? It's not only spread amongst service members, it's spread amongst civilians as well. Our military is all over the world. Not to mention the national guard in all states. Do you think it would be beneficial to have vast outbreaks in the national guard?

A sick nation is a weak nation. A sick nation is a vulnerable nation. Hence now the mandatory vaccination of all service members. Just add Covid to the list of all other vaccinations the military is required to have.

Read HHS.gov: "Vaccines for military members." It's a good read. "Vaccines are an important part of protecting your health and making sure you're able to serve....."
