An Infectious Disease Doctor Explains Why Some Of His Colleagues Are Quitting In The Face Of Vaccine Mandates

Hospital staff in New York State have to prove they are vaccinated against Covid this week or face losing their jobs. It is possible hundreds of employees will refuse to be vaccinated and resign their positions. Earlier this week, Northwell Health fired two dozen employees for not complying with the vaccine mandate, according to Newsday. Environmental and food service professionals, nurses, medical technicians, and physicians are all prepared to quit.

As an infectious diseases physician and researcher involved in Covid vaccine trials, I am often questioned by both the vaccinated and unvaccinated. Many of the vaccinated are baffled, unable to understand why their unvaccinated colleagues are so intractable. I don’t propose to understand why every individual would forfeit their job instead of getting vaccinated, but I have observed some common threads.

“The vaccines were made too fast and are not safe.”

As I have written previously, the Covid vaccine development process was fast for three main reasons:

Thank the Lord for your recovery. Did you require hospitalization? How much did the hospital charge you?

RE: QUIT POSTING this crappy propaganda here! You are not helping us and you are WASTING OUR TIME having to weed through this bullcrap trying to get to the truth. Stop doing it.

I will defend the originator of this thread by saying that FR is NOT a Forum for people to stick their heads in the sand and pretend that propaganda are not out there.

This forum exists for reasonable people to READ what the other side is thinking and REFUTE them with logic, evidence and reason to show them where they are wrong.

Just because someone posts some article from the Main stream media does not necessarily mean one agrees with the article.

If this forum is only a closed site for people to mutually validate each other’s beliefs, then the number of news sites we can post here will be extremely thin and limited. We might as well turn into a Twitter and Facebook that bans ideas presented by people we disagree with.

Nah. I had a head ache and cold like symptoms for about three weeks. I thought it odd because I never get sick or a head ache. Thought it might be a brain tumor. I caught it on a cruise in November, 2019 before the Covid became known.

The massahs can’t understand why the slaves don’t think slavery is best for everyone—the slaves are so ignorant and selfish!

# Even in the states with the highest rates of hospitalization and death among vaccinated people, unvaccinated people still make up more than 95% of the hospital admissions and Covid- related deaths.

# Is this a fact?
No. The government lies. Always. It no longer has any ability to speak any Truth. ‘Our’ government has become an unspeakably evil monster.
