Subject: What happened to my body my choice? New York’s Largest Healthcare Provider Fires 1,400 Employees Who Refused To Get Vaccinated

Northwell Health, which employs more than 76,000 people as New York State’s largest healthcare provider, has fired 1,400 of its workers after they refused to get vaccinated against the coronavirus, the company announced Monday.

concerned about nursing shortages but then fire nurses! FUCKING MORONS



Officials in New York, like those in many other states that issued similar mandates, were concerned about potential staffing shortages at hospitals and long-term care facilities, considering polls taken earlier in the year indicated that more than 30% of Americans said they would refuse to get vaccinated. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said last month she would sign an executive order allowing her to deploy medically trained National Guard troops and retired healthcare workers to hospitals if such measures were needed. “I’ve made it loud and clear that I’m not going to change my position,” Hochul said. “I’m charged with protecting the health of all New Yorkers.” However, vaccine hesitancy in the U.S. began decreasing following a surge in the dangerous Delta variant and FDA approval of the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 shot. Additionally, nationwide data show employer-issued mandates have proven effective in rapidly increasing inoculation rates among workers. The vaccination rate of New York-based hospital and nursing home workers spiked 10% in the week prior to the September 27 deadline, rising to 92%, state officials said, including more than 95% of the system’s doctors and nurses.
