Nurses Are Refusing Vaccine

 We hear figures that about 1/3 of Americans who are eligible for the vaccine have NOT been vaccinated.  Since we know you can stop in at any Walmart, State or County Fair, Walgreens, CVS and numerous other places to get your Covid shot, we can assume that these 90,000,000 folks simply don't want to get jabbed with the experimental vaccine.

We are hearing from nurses themselves who have witnessed the problems that some of their patients are experiencing immediately following the shot that now as many as 20% of the nations nurses (in some localities) are refusing to get jabbed.

As hospitals and nursing homes start requiring all their employees to get the COVID shot and nurses start resigning, this situation could further tax the already stretched-thin nursing staff.

A nationwide shortage of nurses and health care workers may soon worsen as thousands of medical staff face losing their jobs by refusing to obey new COVID-19 vaccine mandates.

“It will be really terrible. We’re already understaffed,” said one veteran registered nurse who works at a health care facility north of Seattle.

She said she will lose her job after her employer’s Aug. 31 mandated vaccine goes into effect unless she complies with the requirement.

She estimates that as many as 400—20 percent—of the health center’s 2,500 employees refuse to take the vaccine. That number will likely shrink due to the financial hardship of job loss, she said, though “even losing 5 percent would be devastating to the community,” she told The Epoch Times.

The nurse, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said her only solution is if her employer grants her a religious exemption, which appears unlikely at this point.

“It looks like they’re going to reject my religious exemption. They need more information, but they’re not telling me what information they’re going to need. It puts me in a really tough situation,” she said. “I have two [elderly] parents who live with me. It would be extraordinarily disruptive to move them. It’s extremely scary trying to start again somewhere else.”

Stephanie Thorpe, a registered nurse in the UCHealth Colorado system, is also stuck between an employee rock and a medical hard place over her company’s pending vaccine mandate.

Thorpe said she, too, could lose her job if her application for a religious exemption is denied.

UCHealth reports more than 92 percent of 26,000 employees systemwide are fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

That leaves a reluctant 8 percent who refuse the shots.

These medical professionals—Thorpe included—will have until Sept. 1 to comply with UCHealth’s Oct. 1 vaccine mandate, or else they will face disciplinary action up to and including termination.

“We do allow if there is a religious exemption or a medical exemption as well,” said UCHealth spokeswoman Kelly Tracer. “UCHealth has been facing the same staffing challenges that hospitals around the country are, definitely. It’s a national shortage.”

Thorpe estimates “a couple hundred” staunch opponents to the vaccine mandate “are willing to walk away” because of the vaccines.

“Right now, [UCHealth] is working short-staffed at many facilities,” she told The Epoch Times.

Thorpe said that even if a small percentage of UCHealth employees are fired or walk off the job, their departure could be significant.

“I’m concerned that the people who are vaccinated and are going to stay are going to take the majority of the workload,” Thorpe said. “We can’t even get people now to fill positions. It could get very scary.”

The Prince of This World is certainly prepping all inhabitants of earth to "do as you are told".  The liberals seem to have ignored their own battle cry of "My body!  My choice!" that they have been trumpeting around abortion laws.  I guess that doesn't apply when THEY want everyone to get injected.

We know one thing with absolute certainty...this shot is further dividing families, friends and even church bodies.  And Satan has to be really pleased with this division.
