People expect to receive treatment from their care provider. Not exposure to a novel coronavirus.

Max

People also expect honesty from their government but they are not receiving that either. Missouri does not require, nor allow a vaccine passport.

No American should be required to take any drug for employment. The FDC has only approved the Covid-19 vaccination for emergency use. Already the FDC has attached a warning label for a given age group to the vaccine. The vaccine is strictly experimental and there are many unknown elements about it

Gina Spriggs

The vaccines are experimental. Violates the Nuemberg code. This is still America where we have freedom from government intrusion.

I struggle with this one having been a RN for years, and never had the flu vaccine, but would mask up just for that patient contact. Each of owns their health, either be healthy in your lifestyle choices, vaccinate, or not and risk dying. Yes, I know you can pass it on without being ill yourself.

Tom

I’m sure companies will run into issues in trying to remove employees that do not vaccinate. However I see nothing wrong with companies requiring vaccination for all new hires based on their workplace policies.

Alexander

Presumably, healthcare workers are best qualified/educated to make their own informed decisions on whether to vaccinate.

I’ll never forget when my newborn was in the ER for coughing up blood. I asked my manager for help and she said “Well, I guess your husband will have to take care of her.” But he had to work too, and had a competitive job where half positions got fired recently and feared not completing his project.

Zaos Gonzolez

I would not show up to work. There is no chance I would leave the side of my wife or children for anything.

Good for state morale. Less good for state revenue. Less good for residents who wish to attend games as ticket prices soar. But it keeps MO in national eye which is good for state economy.

Zaos Gonzolez

What?!!? I only care about my own personal revenue. State taxes can GF.

Subsidizing private multi-billion dollar sports teams is not in the scope of a state government. Or any government. If progressives want to make the claim of letting billionaires, like the Hunt family, "to pay their fair share" well here's the time to make that claim.

Bill Douglas

Really? But no complaint whatsoever about the $200M for football stadium suites at the University of Missouri ?? Hypocrite!

Toasty

No, but I understand the need for 'bread and circuses'.

Bill Douglas

How many University of Missouri games you spend money going to? Being in Columbia it is practically a religious experience for you college communists

Zaos Gonzolez

Get the degenerate consumerism OUT of Missouri. Reduce taxes.
