What happens when workers walk out in response to mandatory vaccinations?

@STODR

No, he didn’t.

I would prefer the health care providers in my community follow science

They are following the science. There are those who don’t like the way they are following the science, but the science says the majority of the population are safe from the latest boogeyman.

Guess who healthcare workers take care of? People who aren’t safe from the “boogeyman.” Science.

COVID-19 Vaccines

So they’ve worked a whole year, know the risks, made the decision to not get the vaccine, but you’re going to make them because you know better?

Hardly.

Are they going to quit using PPE as a result of the mandatory vaccine when dealing with covid patients?

I’m not going to “make them” do anything. They have a choice. If they make the choice not to get vaccinated they’ve made the choice to work somewhere else. People make the choice to work somewhere else all the time based on what they believe to be unfair working conditions. No one is holding them down and forcing them to be vaccinated.

PPE is used in combination with vaccination. That’s science. As much as some want to think it isn’t.

Maybe the unvaccinated can open up their own hospitals and clinics? Then the unvaccinated healthcare workers can take care of the unvaccinated patients. It can be a safe place for the anti-vaxxers. They can even ditch all the PPE nonsense.

That sounds like a great choice for them. American freedom and ingenuity at work.

So ivermectin and monoclonal antibodies.

Sure, but it’s not a rule.

My soon-to-be daughter in law is also clinical and everything but the fitted respirators are on her tab.

I thought they were really short of medical personnel?

Actually it is.

We literally called our termination seminar “It’s just not working out”.

[tzu]

What is the ‘it’?

@PurpnGold

You can get it… you just might have to pay higher premiums.

If you for some reason you can’t, or won’t, guess you won’t have a business anymore.

Thanks. You apparently know more than the insurance agents.

I already explained the premiums.

Which ties into the thread. If I have an employee who is disabled from me requiring the vaccine or who is damaged as a result (I gave a great example of not being at fault) and my Worker Comp rates reach the threshold that I cannot be insured, what then?

[tzu]

Litigate.

If people want to take their dog’s Heartgard and are willing to accept the consequences, it’s their choice. Not sure where they’d get ahold of monoclonal antiboidies.

If that is a concern with the vaccine… would that also be a concern if that same employee caught Covid while at work and had long term affects?

@SottoVoce

This is a discussion about healthcare workers.

Is it? Or is that just where it starts?

[tzu]

Grenada trained lawyers might be able win the unsafe working conditions suit …

[zantax]

Umm monoclonal antibodies is accepted treatment now, try to keep up.

[WuWei]

@tzu

Employer providing those uniforms. A rule.

[tzu]

It seems the comment was about supply.

[tzu]

Not ‘those’ uniforms. Just uniforms. Not enough internal consistency to draw a rule.

Rule: punch a bouncer, get removed from establishment.

Not a rule: go into bar, get punched by bouncer.

When every employer in the United States mandates vaccination for employment there might be room for discussion.

Sure. Make the “choice” to get a monoclonal antibody treatment outside of a licensed healthcare provider.

It is a rule. An OSHA rule.
