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 don't think no one ever is . Plus like the town ( Moberly) the city doesn't do their part in trimming back trees or removing dead trees . Or homeowners don't do the same . So when the storms come that's why there are power outages. Or you have ameren in a dispute on what trees they cut on lines .

Belinda Kitchen

Because they only cut trees off the main high line so it's job security when the trees fall on power lines they come out and fix them . The city won't trim trees back out of the lines at all . It's up to homeowners now really but yet they go down the alleys spraying for weeds ?
