Mayo Clinic Fires 700 Employees Who Haven't Been Vaccinated
Newsmax ^ | 5 January 2022 | Peter Malbin

Posted on 01/05/2022 9:10:17 AM PST by fwdude

Mayo Clinic is dismissing about 700 workers for failing to comply with a vaccine-mandate policy at the Rochester, Minnesota-based health system.

Employees had until Monday to either receive their first shots or obtain an exemption for medical or religious reasons, the StarTribune reported. Mayo Clinic said it granted the majority of exemption requests.

“Now it more resembles the halls of congress...let in the Somalis and kiss your loved ones good-bye.”

I found they have no interest in admitting someone with Medicare + Medicare Supplement insurance.

Depending on which people that is, 1% of your workforce can be a big deal.

That number also doesn’t include the exemptions they granted almost all of, no clue how many of those there were.

I didn't know that.

My first experience with Mayo was 30 years ago, when my father's heart blew up on him, and eventually caused his death.

But back then the place was, or seemed, brand new. Everything shone, the non-medical staff was eager, dedicated...the place was like a small package of Reagan's shining city on the hill.

Ten years later I went myself, for shoulder replacement surgery, and ran into a truly criminal physician...this guy told me I had three days to let him know if I wanted a full shoulder replacement or a partial replacement.

I didn't even know there was ONE kind, let alone two or three choices.

Fifteen years ago my mother checked in, with pancreatic cancer, and while the doc couldn't do much for her, he made things plain to us kids, and gave my mother as much care AND hope as he could. But, the rooms seemed old, the glow was gone, and yes indeed the somalis were there in force. I saw nothing done wrong by them, or even slightly carelessly, which just goes to show---there are always good and bad. This recent trip was for treatment of my own, and I saw the rushed patients, rushed doctors and staff, and the people piled up in the waiting rooms. The bloom is off the rose, and I'm sure much of that comes from the lunatic battles over covid.

By the end of the week I was wearied, and worried sick, disillusioned, and plainly angry. I rose, glared at the doctor, and told her that both my parents had come here to die, and "you are never going to get another fing shot at me."

Sorry for the descriptive language. Truly by that time they had me completely beaten down.

Go Galt. The janitor’s been vaxed. Maybe he’ll handle the chemo and radiation therapy for all the terminally ill people. How hard can it be, since all these dumb bumpkin technician, nurse and doctor deplorables could do it.

“...for failing to comply...”

With “friendly” copywriters like this, who needs hostiles?

They DID NOT “fail”; they outright REFUSED, of grounds of the elemental human right of individual conscience.

!@#ktards at Newsmax need a boot to the head to reset their Vertical Hold.

It sounds like they are doing this on their own without any communist state requirement. Many deaths will be on there hands.

“Now they’ll whine about a staffing shortage.”

You beat me to it. My first thought. Have a good day.

“Keep,on firing and creating an avoidable shortage of workers. This nonsense has to stop.
Are we the only nation this stupid? Or are other nations also biting off their noses to spite their faces?”

Just look at what is running our government? Enough said.

And probably hires them back as contractors.

You’ve certainly had your share of (mostly unpleasant) dealings with them.

My only experience has been with the Phoenix branch of Mayo. An endodontist referred me to their neurology dept. for recurring facial/head pain.

I called admitting and was told that she’d check, as it was a department-by-department decision WRT accepting Medicare. I was then told that the neurology dept was not accepting patients with “government-funded insurance”.

Apparently it’s based on their financial need at the time you inquire, as I’ve been told by some with Medicare that they were accepted as patients.

Nah. They’ll spin this thusly, “the beds available at the Mayo Clinic are maxed out due to the unvaccinated!”, when in fact, it is because they are now under staffed.

Yup. That's what all of the major facilities in Cleveland are doing as we speak. They have since reversed their policy on firing unvaccinated, but substantial damage has already been done.

sounds like medical discrimination and a violation of civil rights

not to mention an attempt to coerce the employees into getting jabbed.

Not sure about their policy re the vax issue, as my contact with them was in 2019.

The impetus for this was the proposed OSHA mandate - I believe the email said more or less - in anticipation of the upcoming federal requirement. They refused to back down after it was tied up in the courts.

I certainly can't blame everything on them. The heart guy and the pancreas guy got dealt a damned poor hand.

The scoundrel of a shoulder man is still on the scene, in fact I think he is a department head now. I looked him up while I was last there but didn't want to dwell on him, recall him much at all.

Bad guy. Thought it was all funny.

I found the best shoulder guy in the world right in my back yard...I. He is the only doc I have spend lots of time with, who promised me certain goals by certain dates and he nailed every one of them, 3 months, 6 months, it didn't matter.

He believed and I did too.

My dear old dad, he was a great one, fought those heart battles day after day.

He was a self-made man, worked like a dog, played like one too...when he was on his back he refused to avail himself of government insurance, didn't want to ask them for anything.

In those days you could actually think about paying your way, which as far as I recall he did.

Lord, I miss him now.

Good luck in the future, you take care.
