I would add one more to your list.

Presumably, almost all of these people are licensed and certified medical professionals; anyone walking through the doors of a hospital is trusting them with their very lives.

Accordingly, they make medical decisions throughout the day by analyzing data, symptoms, health history, et cetera.

Now think of the hubris of an elected official to presume that their analysis on this one subject is incorrect, and that such an error in their analysis requires their very replacement.

"And to all the other healthcare workers who are vaccinated, they also deserve to know that the people they're working with will not get them sick."

Wait...What?

If the vaccine works, then what are you afraid of?

I was just gonna say the same thing. Well Cuomo undoubtedly murdered thousands of elderly at least it come off as a complete nut job in his speeches, I’ll give him credit for that at least.

What will the National Guard be asked to do that they are competent to do?

The message to me is, at all costs, stay out of the State of New York.

Hey GovB$tch, “Just get out of the way and let the free market handle your $crewups.!”

Some Minnesota health care facilities not requiring vaccine to acquire staff amid shortage
Alpha News ^ | September 27, 2021 | Kyle Hooten

We’re starting to get nurses applying because of these hospitals mandating the vaccine,” one employer who does not require the vaccine told Alpha News.

While many health care facilities are firing their unvaccinated employees amid a nationwide staffing shortage, some Minnesota companies are taking the opposite approach.

President Joe Biden announced earlier this month that all employers with over 100 employees will be required to institute a company-wide vaccine mandate or face massive recurring fines. Meanwhile, hospitals around the nation are facing nursing shortages that frontline workers say will only be made worse by the Biden mandate as unvaccinated nurses and other professionals are forced out of hospitals. The state government of New York, a nurse in Florida, a hospital CEO in Missouri, and 45% of all nursing homes report critical concern about how the vaccine mandate will impact the already-dwindling ranks of health care workers.

However, some companies are bucking the mandate, retaining their unvaccinated workers and even offering to hire new unvaccinated employees.

“We could hire 20 more nurses today and still not be full,” Todd Johnston, part owner of All About Caring Home Care, told Alpha News. Based in Rush City, Minnesota, All About Caring has been in business for 17 years and presently maintains about 150 employees ranging from registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, private duty nurses and personal care attendants.

The company will not fire its unvaccinated staff who request religious or medical exemptions and is willing to bring in new manpower that hasn’t received the shot. “I do not want anybody to put anything in their body they do not want,” Liz Johnston, another part owner of the company, said at a recent town hall hosted by state Rep. Erik Mortensen.

In addition to being based in company leadership’s personal convictions, this stance also aids them in overcoming the worker shortage.

“We’re starting to get nurses applying because of these hospitals mandating the vaccine, like Fairview and Allina,” Todd Johnston told Alpha News.

He also said that his business hasn’t received any official communication from the government regarding the impending enforcement of the vaccine mandate.

“I’ve only heard what I’ve seen on the news,” he said.

Carefree Cottages in Maplewood, Minnesota, has adopted a similar stance regarding vaccines. In mid-September, it posted a job opportunity that listed “no vaccine requirement” as a benefit of employment — earning the company a hit piece published by KARE 11 last week. After receiving negative media attention, Carefree Cottages altered the language of its listing to read “vaccines are supported, however vaccines are not mandated in the assisted living setting,” KARE 11 reports.

These two companies aren’t alone. Nebraska’s veterans affairs agency recently offered to hire a nurse, listing “no mandated COVID-19 vaccination” as one of the “many great benefits” of the position, according to CBS News.

Medscape, a publication for doctors and other health care professionals, reports that this recruiting tactic is on the rise — noting that a lack of a vaccine mandate has become a “competitive advantage” in the “hospital staffing wars.”

OK, I want to make sure I understand. NY is firing all medical workers who haven’t gotten the jab and replacing at least some of them with men and women in the NY National Guard who are medically qualified. Do I have that right?

But aren’t most of these medically-qualified NYNG members already working at medical jobs in—New York? So she’s taking people from jobs where they know what’s going on and putting them into places they’ve never been. This doesn’t appear to be the brightest of ideas.

Remember just recently when they talked about how the unvaccinated are overrun in the hospitals and causing the healthcare workers to get burned out? So now you have taken civilian healthcare workers and made them via the national guard work extra shifts to cover for the civilian workers you fired, leading to even quicker for an hour and likely mistakes that can result in serious injury or death

I don’t really get this. Just cause you are in the National Guard does not mean you are medically and legally qualified to work in the capacity in the hospital as such. How do they do this?

Partially on the photos of New York elect idiots. And that’s putting it politely.

“Sure didn’t take Governor Hokum long to screw things up.”

Her predecessor issued the executive order.

“Just cause you are in the National Guard does not mean you are medically and legally qualified to work in the capacity in the hospital as such.”

My brother-in-law became a National Guard medic in 1969 during the Vietnam War.

He never held a New York State health care license.

Knock off the real world reality.

Blue Governors don’t live in real worlds.

This is what I think is happening. Cuomo was removed through the actions of AG Latitia James with her political hit. Everyone knew Cuomo was a creep but all of a sudden it mattered. That placed Hochul in the governor’s seat for which she is completely unqualified to hold. I think Hochul is being given intentionally bad advice to make her poison in for 2022. That leaves the door wide open for James, a Soros/Obama minion in charge of the state.

Nothing like putting people out of work. All these people have been working right along with no problems. All of a sudden, they're a problem. Follow the science...or follow the money.

“… and who may not “have had” a license lapse.”

Really. Every Howard University med school graduate that didn’t renew under a malpractice threat to have her license pulled, and every graduate of a third world med school will soon be moving to New York. “Yes! Kinshasa Medical University is one of the finest in all of Africa!. I am very good with worms!”

Democrats are the definition of idiocy. NY got rid of one incompetent clown and replaced it with a dumber and even more incompetent clown.
