Persons who have not been vaccinated and have one on one contact with residents move about freely. Last Sat. I had a visit scheduled with my sister. 45 minutes before our scheduled visit my niece received call that we could not come because a staff member tested positive. Another 14 day quarantine

Many people who have had the vaccine also get the Covid. Do some research and get some knowledge before judging others. You are embarrassing yourself.

They have to have a flu shot! This is a viral respiratory disease worse than the flu.

Vaccination rates in some places remain low. Only 48% of Missouri's nursing home employees are vaccinated -- the nation's third-lowest rate.

We live in America where we are Free to make a choice. Remember, “My Body, My Choice?” Employers who force it will end up losing customers and not enough employees to do the work, forcing them out of business. Good Riddance! Tyranny has to Stop!

Max

Although I believe it is the best choice for most people, some people can not get the vaccine, for numerous health reasons. It is also Un Constitutional to force this on people. But Joe is also Un Constitutional, and Un American.

FYI, Did you know: American citizens do not have to listen to the President. Citizens do not have to listen so government. The people, in and of themselves, are the government.

Putting your family members in a nursing home tells me a lot about you.

Defund all welfare programs. Make people responsible for their own actions.

Max

SNAP is primarily funded by the U.S. federal government through congressional appropriations, with the USDA providing the funds, and states administering the program and covering their share of administrative costs.

Trump won this. SCOTUS ruled in favor of Trump.

Trump basically has no say in this, it's on the shoulders of Congress. Might want to study what all the 111th Congress did back in 2009-11... this is all about payback.

Spend the money on something else. Send missiles to israel instead.

Toasty

Its all a game both sides are playing with real people in the middle. Trump should step aside and tell congress this mess is all theirs.

Max

Schumer knows this is all on the backs of the democrats.

I haven't watched a baseball game since the late 80's. Just not my thing.
