Ohio Nurse Goes Viral for Refusing COVID-19 Vaccine
The Ohio Star ^ | August 28, 2021 | Peter D'Abrosca

A lengthy Facebook post from an Ohio nurse who is set to be fired for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine has nearly half a million shares, and more than 220,000 comments.

“I’m an RN of 10 years and I am being fired December 1. I’m not political. I don’t watch the news. I do my job and I go home to my family. I love caring for others from every single walk of life and I take that responsibility seriously,” Melissa Rexroth said in a Facebook post written in the early morning last Saturday.

WBNS confirmed that Rexroth is a registered nurse in Ohio, though she did not say where she worked in her Facebook post.

“Last year I worked the floor no one else wanted to,” she continued, referring to the COVID-19 floor. “I have my own medical issues, but I willingly worked that floor. I sat face to face with your loved ones without fear because I trust science when it says the survival rate is greater than 99%. However, I don’t judge anyone who is scared. If I hadn’t seen all the things I’ve seen with my own eyes, I would probably be scared too.”

Rexroth continued, noting that most of the patients she saw last year, even before the COVID-19 vaccine was available, survived the illness and “walked out the door.”

“This year I’m working in the ER and will be fired December 1st for refusing a [vaccine],” she said. “How is it possible that I worked the entire past year, most shifts on said floor, many times without the proper equipment, and without the [vaccine], but today I am expendable?”...

## I will quit my company if they mandate it and I will do it in a way that causes the greatest rift as possible.

Me too. I can live for about 3 years on my savings right now without changing a thing. I figure by then all hell will have broken loose anyway.

It looks like the mindless progressives have shown up to her facebook page in order to mock her. She is a hero.

I feel the same about my 20-something son, he worked on covid wards (not as a healthcare worker but as a contractor) - since the beginning. Most of that time without a mask. Was in close quarters with covid positive coworkers (same vehicle), took care of a sick with covid girlfriend, etc. Never got sick.

His company is mandating the shot. He is updating his resume and is ready to be fired.

They gave him a big raise to get him to stay but he’s unmoved.

My wife is a believer in the vaccine. I told her, that I will let my company fire me if they try to force me to take the vaccine. She admits is it wrong to force people to take it, but I cannot talk with her much more about it.

Make them fire you. That will go over much better in the class action suits to come.
