Man, I tell ya what. I'm constantly confounded by people who just won't get the damned COVID vaccine.

I attended a hybrid school board meeting last night (in-person and Zoom), where more than one nurse got up and showed me how stupid she was.

I am having a hard time dealing with why nurses, of all people, would stand up and say "Don't get the vaccine. Don't wear a mask. We have immune systems that work."

Yep. Until they don't.

I guess those 600,000+ DEAD PEOPLE didn't get the fucking memo.

Well, Houston Methodist Hospital is having none of it. If their employees don't get the vaccine, they'll fire them.

The last damned thing I want to do is go to the hospital for a fractured limb or some sort of elected surgery, and get a preventable disease from a worker who should have been vaccinated. Can you spell, L-A-W-S-U-I-T?

Hospital workers in Texas who refused to get a COVID-19 vaccine as part of company policy are now facing termination after a deadline came and went this week, prompting some workers to gather in protest.

Dozens of people carrying signs and waving American flags gathered outside of the Houston Methodist Hospital on Monday, some in support of the workers and others joining after their final hospital shift ended.

The medical center’s 26,000 employees had been given until Monday to get the vaccine. Those who failed to do so would be suspended for two weeks without pay starting on Tuesday. Those workers now have until June 21 to get vaccinated or they will be terminated, the hospital told its staff in a policy statement back in April.

GOOD.
