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.

It's very cool.

UM athletics is an arm of govt. they do not earn anything. That Univ produces nothing but obnoxious computer geeks who get jobs for state govt agencies like the DOT spending their days synchronizing traffic lights that nobody understands like the asburgers nerd we have in my hometown up here in NWMO

What a tragic waste of money.

Bill Douglas

So what are you going to do about it?

Bill Douglas

so what are you going to do about it? Just sit there and complain online or are you going to actually do something to put a stop to this we are here in my hometown. We are filing complaints against any state employee we can think of who graduated from this university: REVOKE THEIR DEGREES!!!

Will Mason

I didn't know we had 250 million laying around to spend on sports.

Bill Douglas

Would you like the name and number of a state employee who is a graduate of this university? Who continues to support this athletic program? Would you join our effort to remove him from state employment for being a UM grad?

Harry D

MU Athletics makes their money the hard way - they earn it.

Zaos Gonzolez

This is so destructive to the environment. I want MU to close for good. MU RUINS MO!

Bill Douglas

if you really believe that, what do you propose we do about the alumni and supporters of this university and it’s athletic programs? are you willing to join our effort to hold these people accountable? Would you be willing to start filing complaints against alumni of this university employers?

Like most drivers, I have one hand holding my fast food, other hand holding my cell phone, a knee on the steering wheel, and rarely look up from my cell phone so I don't know if other drivers are so irresponsible to be driving distracted or not. I certainly don't drive distracted, that's bad. FJB

Faye Friedrich

Many time ppl are seen looking/using phone while driving crossing the line on the road or having to slam on their brakes so they don't hit the car in front of them.

Culture isn't legislated.
