Gee, I know I'd like to be treated by a health care worker with covid-19. Sigh... It should be law that they are vaccinated.

Jack L

I agree. Patients should have the reasonable expectation that they will not be infected by their health care providers. Who wants to be treated for a sprained ankle and come home with COVID?

Some health care workers have pushed back against vaccine mandates, saying they violate medical freedom.

Two professional Health Care workers here are against it. But the "All Knowing Nothing Sheeple" are for it.

Lisa Gore

Freedom!!

Mary Deener

I am a health care worker who worked strictly from home no contact with patients other than phone calls and still was required to receive the vaccine. I feel like it is my choice if I et the vaccine or not so I resigned my position

Max

The vaccine is not a vaccine. It is an untested, unproven flu shot. No one should be forced to put this in their bodies against their will. This will play out in the courts for those who don't want it.

Max

The vaccine mandate is nothing but a smokescreen to divert attention away from the border crisis, inflation, economy, CRT, and all of the other failed policies of the current administration.

Adam Schrader

And if the day were to come you had to not work from home???

The Biden administration is requiring many large companies to require their workers to get vaccinated in its push to raise vaccination levels.

It’s the right thing to do. As a human, it is our responsibility to protect others from this Virus. It’s been proven safe and effective in preventing serious disease. The longer the pandemic goes on the more virulent the virus will become. It’s up to each of us to do our part.

Jamie McAtee

The vaccine is not designed to prevent you from getting the virus altogether. The data is fairly clear. Vaccinated people have less chance of getting it, less chance of getting as sick and less chance of dying. All parameters measured are statistically significant. Not a $ or political thing.

Donna Hogue

Its not about you. Do something for the good of all!

Adam Schrader

People DO have a right to take the vaccine. They DON'T have the right to jeopardize other people's health and safety. If you don't want the vaccine, find a job from home.

Adam Schrader

Yes, I'm vaccinated. And yes I got the delta strain last month. Was hospitalized. Multiple doctors said if I didn't get vaxed, I well could be dead. People, this is serious! Get vaxed for the health of everyone around you.

Jeffrey S

The unvaxinated are a place for the virus to evolve in. It is like that the virus will mutate to become worse than it allready is. PLEASE, for the sake of the newborn, get vaccinated. Signed Grandfather.

People are worried about THEIR freedoms, not at all caring about others freedoms to a safe and healthy working environment. So their employers have to do it for them.

Many workers, including a group of 3M employees who walked out of the Columbia plant Monday, say they shouldn't have to choose between the job and their medical freedom.

Everyone is already short-staffed. This mandate is stupid. These are the people that kept coming to work while everyone else sat home on their butts collecting a check.

Max

Why are US Senators and US House Members exempt? I think they should also be fired.

Adam Schrader

For once, I agree with you

Lisa Gore

99.96% survivable without the “vax”...the vaxed are still wearing masks, and have been catching more Covid than the unvaxed...this leads me to our intelligent freedom to choose...just like we can choose to vote for certain candidates or not, which we will remember who voted for or against. 100%

Dan Myers

It's a decision that should be made between a doctor and patient, not the government.

Will Mason

The 43% who think others should lose their jobs, should lose THEIR jobs. They are self centered jerks.

Mandi Hamlin

This is something that can have life long effects on a person. A job is just that, a job. A workplace shouldn't have the ability to make life changing or altering choices for their workers. They don't get to have a say in any other medical decision for any of their workers, this is no different.

Vernon Taylor

Because Harry D voted yes.

Max

Harry D is wise beyond your comprehension. Don't try to keep up with him, that ain't gonna happen.

A federal rule requiring workers at companies with 100 or more employees to be vaccinated against coronavirus could go into effect any day now.

It has closed and or damaged businesses, strained supply lines and raised prices across the nation. Let's Go Brandon.

The requirement doesn't apply to smaller companies, and many workers at larger companies have already been vaccinated. (Photo Credit: Arne Müseler / CC BY-SA 2.0.)
