Nurses plan walk-out over hospital's vaccination mandate - told to get the jab or lose your job

An ongoing disagreement between a major Houston hospital’s management and its nursing staff continues. Houston Methodist Hospital is requiring that all staff be vaccinated against COVID-19, with the exceptions of religious objection or health. Staffers were told to get the vaccinations or they no longer have jobs at the hospital.

Unfortunately, Abbott’s passport ban only really applies to State Contractors according to an article I just read. It’s very weak, nothing like DeSantis’s. The only penalty for a business requiring vaccine passports is that they can’t receive state grants or contracts with the state. This doesn’t apply to most businesses so there will be little, if any negative outcomes for businesses that require the passport. Weak and disappointing.

I had an update on the walk out from a group text which said that so many were fired for not having the vax that there are whole units and departments within the hospitals that are, shut down because no one to staff them. Apparently the CEO had no idea how many were not vaxed. I hope this is true.

Because it’s against the law to force medicine on someone.

Says who? Children are required to get a standard set of vaccinations before attending school. If that's legal then requiring you employees to be vaccinated is legal as well.

Thanks for the report.
Tests for infectiveness are quicker and cheaper than antibody testing.

Though why no one is interested in antibody tests is beyond me. Natural immunity is a large part of the public health fight against covid now.

I’ve heard anecdotally that a rather large percentage of working nurses opted not to get the vaccine. We’ll see if this trend spreads and if it does, will those nurses all back down or will we see an exodus?

I have a close friend in senior management at a large hospital who reports the percentage of nurses, not just at their hospital, who won't take the experimental treatment is greater than 50% and isn't changing.

This isn't medicine. It's an experiment.

Nice propaganda. These are not vaccines; they're experiments and forcing experimental treatment on individuals was specifically addressed in the permissible experiments section of the Nuremberg Code in 1947.
(http://www.cirp.org/library/ethics/nuremberg/)

"The great weight of the evidence before us to effect that certain types of medical experiments on human beings, when kept within reasonably well-defined bounds, conform to the ethics of the medical profession generally. The protagonists of the practice of human experimentation justify their views on the basis that such experiments yield results for the good of society that are unprocurable by other methods or means of study. All agree, however, that certain basic principles must be observed in order to satisfy moral, ethical and legal concepts:"

"The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, overreaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision."

"The duty and responsibility for ascertaining the quality of the consent rests upon each individual who initiates, directs, or engages in the experiment. It is a personal duty and responsibility which may not be delegated to another with impunity."

"The experiment should be so conducted as to avoid all unnecessary physical and mental suffering and injury."

"Proper preparations should be made and adequate facilities provided to protect the experimental subject against even remote possibilities of injury, disability or death."

"The experiment should be conducted only by scientifically qualified persons. The highest degree of skill and care should be required through all stages of the experiment of those who conduct or engage in the experiment."

"During the course of the experiment the human subject should be at liberty to bring the experiment to an end if he has reached the physical or mental state where continuation of the experiment seems to him to be impossible."

Reigning in tyrannical government is only part of the effort. Reigning in the korporations supporting such a tyrannical government is another.

I work in a small rural Hosp.

I can't tell you how many refused or wanted the Vax.

I was asked twice if I wanted it...said no twice.

I had the 19 way before...anyone talking about the Vax.

I'm up in the grills of so many people....Yeah I wear a mask...and at one point a simple mask and a N-95 too.

I ain't taking the Vax....

When my youngest needed vaccinated before kindergarten, I asked the doctor not to give her the pertussis vaccine, because I had read it could cause serious problems. He said, “I NEVER give the pertussis vaccine. It can cause problems.” No one at school objected. When my granddaughter had her first or second vaccines as an infant, her mother noticed some erratic eye movements that afternoon. Pediatrician said it was seizure activity, and she was not to have pertussis vaccine again. Still went to school. I’m sure there are many instances of parents not wanting their kids vaccinated. I’m also sure that there have been lawsuits which ended up with kids going to school without vaccinations, depending upon what state they live in. But those freedoms are being quickly eroded in our country.

Why is it the governments job to tell private companies how to handle their own affairs?

Because it's not a private company and their own affairs. If these korporations want to do business, there are rules and they're set up for a reason. Without them, you could ignore a company's trademarks and sell copies of their products on tables right in front of their stores. You could redirect their web traffic to your site. The list goes on.

Korporations that want to ignore the rules and force experimental testing on humans as the Nazis did can disconnect from the public's utility lines, have their driveways curbed over, and relocate to Communist China.

Not true. There are religious and other exemptions in almost all states.

Religious exemptions for members of specific sects. Medical exemptions if you can prove an allergy or past serious reaction to a vaccine or something like that. It's highly doubtful that any of those would apply to the employees here.

Yeah take that argument to court and see where it gets you.

I disagree. Children get FDA-approved *vaccines* for school, not experimental gene therapy.

May your chains set lightly upon you.
