I support an employer’s choice. Hospitals made vaccine mandatory long before Federal mandate. It has survived court challenges.

Hospital Systems have long required a bevy of vaccines of their employees and volunteers, clinical and non- clinical. Prospective employees are aware of these requirements.

As it relates to Mayo, it operates at a Level 1 Trauma ER at some locations in both adult and Pediatrics.

It is among one of the most desirable/ coveted residency programs in the US.

Imagine the clinical staff that was terminated will be challenged to find comparable employment elsewhere at this time.

You really think that ? Well some hospitals that fired people are taking them back...and letting them file an exemption.

And some states have laws against covid vaccine mandates so these people can find jobs elsewhere.
Rhode Island, Nebraska and the Cleveland Clinic are examples you can find in the news where unvaccinated staff are being hired/can keep their jobs.

Kudos to Mayo Clinic for doing the right thing. Proof of having had numerous FDA approved vaccinations have always been a condition of employment there. You don't like the rules at your job? Find the nearest door with an EXIT sign over it.

My question is:

Why were so many Mayo Clinic employees wary of getting the vaccines in the first place?

Btw, HAVE the COVID vaccines finally received FDA approval? And if so, does that mean that people are no longer required to sign away the right to sue if they are injured by the vaccine?

The mRNA shot is a vaccine, not a therapeutic. You take a therapeutic, such as Remdesivir, after you get sick, not as a preventative.

Why are people refusing to take the shot? Because the internet, cable TV and some politicians have flooded America with anti-science propaganda that spreads uncertainty and doubt.

They weren't. Mayo Clinic had 99% compliance. The anti-vaxxers were a tiny minority.

The shots aren't even vaccines and they don't "prevent" much.

Most, if not all, hospital systems in ALL states require employees to be vaccinated.

One might recall, Houston Methodist was among the first major hospital system to add Covid vaccine to the list of required vaccines. It survived court challenges. And all of this predated Federal mandate.

Hospitals generally don’t discriminate between clinical and non- clinical employees and volunteers when it comes to mandatory vaccines.

Thinking the terminated clinical employees, especially CNAs, may likely land in nursing homes, some of which may not require vaccines. Hardly comparable to Mayo in terms of resume, pay and benefits.

There are already major staffing shortages in healthcare. Firing hundreds of workers will make this worse.

These fired workers will find plenty of work for sane companies who don’t fire people based on their willingness to get injected with an experimental pharmaceutical product. There are openings everywhere.
