The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) on Monday become the first federal agency to require its frontline health care workers to be vaccinated.
President Joe Biden confirmed the move in a brief statement to reporters Monday afternoon.
'Yes. Veteran Affairs is going to in fact require that all docs working in facilities are going to have to be vaccinated,' Biden said, following a report quoting his Veterans Affairs secretary regarding health care workers at the VA.
115,000 staffers will have two months to get inoculated against the coronavirus, and face being fired if they do not oblige.
President Biden confirmed that 'all docs' at the VA would be asked to get the shot ahead of his meeting with the Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kadhimi in the Oval Office.
Denis McDonough, the secretary of veterans affairs, told the New York Times: 'I am doing this because it’s the best way to keep our veterans safe, full stop.
He added that the mandates would apply to the employees who have the most contact with patients.
This includes doctors, dentists, nurses, physicians assistants and physical therapists at VA medical centers across the country.
The Biden administration has so far been unwilling to back federal vaccine mandates, and has insisted it is up to private companies.
The move came after White House press secretary Jen Psaki said the White House 'supports the steps of hospitals' to require staff to get vaccinated, saying it 'could be a guide for us on what to do with our own workforce here from the federal government.'
She noted there are 'certain powers' that the federal government has, and 'certain powers that the federal government does not have.'

Another reason I dumped the VA.
If there were a LARGE number of deaths from vaccine reactions, that is, demographically notable, they should already be showing up in Europe, where there has been a very rapid deployment of vaccines over the last three months. They should be affecting the mortality statistics. But they aren’t.
Longer term effects are another matter. We will see, eventually.
Your conclusion is, unfortunately, exactly right. They do not care. We’re dealing with very evil people with an evil agenda.
So now the VA is trying to force employees to take a non FDA approved experimental mRNA gene therapy,
The gene therapy has no liability and Big Pharma will not tell people what is it.
This is coercion and a violation of the Nuremberg Code.
How many of the world employees will die within 3 years?
That’s the crux of the problem. Many on both sides of the aisle have lied and cried wolf so many times it is tough to tell facts from lies many times. Of course, this only works in their favor as it keeps people arguing/fighting against each other, instead of the common enemy.
All I know is that a good friend’s wife works in analyzing data related to drug studies, and she hasn’t gotten the shot, and when I last asked her about it, the response was, “No f&@$%*g way!”
That’s good enough for me.
Hey! Federal employees!! Where’s your great AFGE union now??
The great union that takes your money, and protects scrum workers ... where are they, and why are they silent???
The trials run until 2023
Bull $hit
Over 60% are not taking the gene therapy.
Most of these people aren't AFGE but every conservative article should start with Biden Betrays His Union Base, Mandates Dangerous Big Pharma Experimental Medical Therapy.
It's also interesting that in fact that list isn't union for the most part, because the VA union will oppose mandates for their members like they've opposed nearly every mandate since the beginning of time.
It's also verrrry interesting that Fauxi was going to slow-roll mandates but they have decided instead -- given Gruesome may lose his goobenorship and his loss flip the script on the Plandemic political landscape against the oppressors -- that their only chance to keep the House is to go full Nanzi.
Tyranny
Unions are just going to roll over?

But scroll down to see their friends.
Interesting thought...hmmm.
Its for employees.
And at the same time, thousands of veterans continue to wait for appointments that are weeks to months away; physicals for disability takes up to years!! I know this is true because it took me 20 years to defeat the stinking VA. I kept getting denied and I had to appeal to the Board of Veteran Appeals in Sodom on the Potomac. When you file your appeal, it takes anywhere between 3 to 5 years for the board to get to your case. Mine took 4. They came back that the local VA needed to do further investigation. I went to an exam at the Seattle VA office on a Saturday!!! The doctor there was some wanna-be a doctor. He was in the room with me and his exam lasted LESS THAN THREE MINUTES!!! He tapped my knee with that little red hammer a couple of times, lifted my arm up and told me to drop it. And said he would file his report and left!!! My wife and I were sitting there, mouths open, going what the hell just happened???!!! Again I was denied by the Seattle VA Office. AGAIN I appeal!!! This time it took three years. This time I WON!!! The Board just flat said they got it wrong, that the evidence of my exam was a farce, that my military health records backed up all my claims and awarded me 70% disability!!! The stinking Seattle office was POed. But who gives a tinkers damn, I won. But the VA continues to do this to we veterans today. A guy that I know local, a vet injured in Iraq, has been fighting the VA for years. Same crap. WHY DO WE NEED PEOPLE like the Wounded Warriors Group??? ISN’T the stinking VA suppose to take care of these wounded veterans??? Ain’t that their stinking job???? Must not be anymore since we need Wounded Warriors to help all these injured vets. Yeah, I don’t like the VA. The mess out in Arizona a few years back when all those vets died waiting for stinking appointments!! Yeah, I don’t like the VA.
Here's an IQ test for you:
Delta and Delta plus.
The workers should all get together and walk out together.
Actually I’ve been been tested on a monthly basis since last summer...
It’s hard enough to get people to fill open jobs at McDonalds. How will the VA fill staff shortages in nurses and doctors?
