Nearly half of health care workers remain unvaccinated, survey finds

A newly released survey found nearly half of health care workers nationwide remain unvaccinated.

The survey was done in early March by the Kaiser Family Foundation in partnership with The Washington Post.

Among the initial findings, the survey found:

Just over half (52%) of front-line health care workers say they have received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, leaving 48% who have not.

The unvaccinated group of front-line health care workers includes some who either have their vaccination scheduled (3%) or plan to get vaccinated but haven’t scheduled it

yet (15%). It also includes 3 in 10 who have either not decided whether they will get vaccinated (12%) or say they do not plan on receiving a COVID-19 vaccine (18%).

A large majority of unvaccinated health care workers, who either have not decided if they will get vaccinated or say they do not plan to get vaccinated, say that worries about potential side effects (82%) and the newness of the vaccine (81%) are major factors in their decision making.

Access to a COVID-19 vaccine from an employer is a key aspect of vaccination rates among front-line health care workers. To read the survey in its entirety, click here.

Many are choosing NOT to be vaccinated.

Which allows for an acceleration of advancing other groups/categories in the line.

My wife is a medical social worker - they’ve been placing pressure on her for years in years in years to get this vaccine that vaccine

and ever since she met me and learned the truth about the evil vaccine industry she’s known never to let them ever put anything in your body

It’s all about profits it’s not about health

A central paradigm of Western medicine is vaccines and it is incredibly stupid and the fact that they force these upon very young children for decades now has created this entire autism spectrum crisis

The bottom line is is they don’t care ! and they just get on their merry way and come up with new vaccines

Traditionally it is only been Democrats and the left that I’ve ever tried to force vaccines down peoples throats

This is still for the most part true

Those that aren’t paying attention have already forgotten that they tried to push the measles vaccine on everybody and their sister in 2019

Anybody with half a brain knows not to let any of the government needles in your arm

Basically zero health care workers, we know under age 50 are getting the vaccine.

They are young, healthy and most feel that they have had a brush with the virus. So they have some immunity.

Most of their peers of similar ages are saying not now. They may come around to the one time shot if it works out.

I actually work in a small rural Hosp.

We have had many positive COVID people here.........

Most are asymptomatic....We screen everyone...who comes in the ER.

Personally I think I had the 19 last year...about FEB.

I am not taking the VAC...I've been up in the grill's of so many people it's not funny....

I am older...but I am not worried.

IF "they" demand a VAC passport or such...I will get a counterfeit one...

I am not going to comply.

My pt worker says she will not get the vaccine, because, she wants to get pregnant. Any truth to this?

In my work, I come across a good number of RNs.

My company being very PC, I cannot ask them about the China Virus.

Instead, they on their own bring it up since they are outside the constraints of their employer. None are taking the "vaccine". Some are of child bearing years and say no way.

None worn a mask when I was with them. When I tell them that company law requires me to wear a half face respirator, they roll their eyes or make similar facial expressions.

Half won't get the? I think the percentage of health care workers wisely avoiding an untested vaccine for a scamdemic is higher than that.

Take the vaccine and appease the con artists; suffer side effects and maybe lose your life or your health.

I’ve seen several reports saying that multiple young women, who’ve been vax’d, have miscarried.

Also, remember reading that some docs are suggesting women of child bearing age not take.

The arrogance and snarky nature of those who got it is wearing thin.

young, healthy folks don’t need the vaccine

there’s not enough data and research to understand long-term effects

even Merck has said that its better to develop antibodies naturally

complications and side effects are being censored hard by the corrupt media

This goes to show the medical personnel are NOT concerned about the Covid virus but are concerned about the unknown effects of the vaccine.

Are they kidding.,,.,

Most conscientious pregnant women won’t drink a glass of wine much less take an injection that comes with all kinds of warnings and disclaimers that it is experimental!
