Default Mayo Clinic Fires 700 unvax'd Employees

About 1% of their 73K workforce. They can apply for future job openings if they get the vax.

Wonder how long until they bring them back and even allow them to work while having Covid like another hospital did because of short staffing?

I agree. Glad to see these front line hero’s get what is coming to them finally. How dare they try to make risk assessments on their own.

Yeah but working at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN is one of the most desirable jobs to land for healthcare workers in the state.

The vaccine doesn’t prevent the spread, you’re supposedly just less likely to end up in the hospital. It’s a tough cost expense when one of your employees, who you’re currently covering for medical expenses, ends up in a hospital bed with Covid. I’m sure this was just a business decision to keep insurance rates honest. Hence why they’ll immediately hire them back if they’re vaccinated.

This is all about money, they’re just hiding under the cover of “we did this to keep our patients safe” BS.

In CO they are allowing health care workers to go to work with mild symptoms without a covid test because they are short.
so they have covid symptoms yet they dont want them to test because if they did they would be positive and not able to go to work so they have them come to a hospital and infect everyone else there. Seems like they are not too worried about covid anymore.
Stop testing and it all goes away.

what is the statistical probability of being hurt by Covid versus being hurt by the vax?

That’s age related. Most things medical are. Would you approve of them terminating everyone at age 50 to keep their insurance bill lower?

Both are pretty much slim to none.

Does the vaccine reduce the severity of Covid?
