Nova Health NC

Terminated 175
Employees 35000
Percentage .5%

Houston Methodist
Terminated 153 (26 nurses)
Employees 26000
Percentage .5%

Cedars-Sinai
Waiting on final numbers as Oct 8 was cut off. 99 percent of 17000 employees in compliance.

Northwell NY that has 76K Employees are working with 251 that have not complied. That’s .03% they expect to see those numbers drop lower still.

Albany Medical Center with over 11000 employees have 204 on unpaid leave. .2%.

People read on FB 10-20 percent refused without looking up the facts and ran with it. These are just a few small examples but as you can tell the non compliant are a very small number and no where near 10-20 percent as some on here indicate.

“Your horse dewormer” may have killed some people because they used the actual horse medication that’s meant for….. a horse! There is a human version that’s been used over 4 billion times in the last 40 years. Millions of times in just the last year for Covid. It’s been averaging over 88,000 prescriptions per week just in the U.S. It’s side effects are no worse than Advil per the FDA. Also, per the FDA, while rare, death is listed as a side effect of the vaccines.

Peer reviewed from India. 85% reduction. There are actually tons of studies that show Ivermectin works. You also can not find ONE doctor that’s used it that would advise against it even though it’s been used millions of times specifically for covid. Probably over a billion now worldwide. The only studies that show Ivermectin doesn’t work for covid either hides some of their findings or people who actually have covid aren’t allowed to participate in the study.

Uttar Predesh in India. Population over 240 million. Hit 35,000 covid cases in April. Started using Ivermectin as a preventative . Cases dropped off immediately. Haven’t had more than 100 cases in the past 100 days.

The WHO praised the Covid preventative kits (which included Ivermectin) that were sent to every household in Uttar Predesh. For some reason they condemn it here. Probably because it’s 10 cents a pill in India and doesn’t make any money. Ironically, Merck, the company that first produced Ivermectin, is also the very first company to make a new horse dewormer that’s going to be hitting the market any day now and it’ll cost $700 for a 5 day course.

You listed 5 hospitals out of what? Thousands across the country? There are hospitals turning away pregnant birthing people and cancer patients specifically citing a loss of their workforce. Even in New York the governor has stated they’re going to use the national guard to replace the nurses that are leaving.

And even if it is only a .5% reduction. If you’re actually so short staffed… why would you even fire one person? You need everybody. And again, most of these people helped covid patients for 18 months. Now they’re worried about them being unvaccinated.

Your logic makes no sense. Your implication is that Merck is not marketing Invermectin because it cost users 10 cents a pill. Instead they are spending millions to research and test a drug that will in your mind just replace Invermectin use in COVID patients. Let’s see here if I am CEO I repurpose a drug I already own to fight COVID and jack up the price to account for supply and demand curves OR I spend R&D dollars to get a new one approved and it takes me 4 years to recover those costs…..hmmmmm

You obviously do not run a business. Thank god

Here ya go. I just paired a very small part of a larger list. Feel free to look it up it want.

Albany Med has reportedly suspended 204 of its more than 11,000 employees as of Sept. 28. They have a week to comply before facing termination.

ChristianaCare President and CEO Janice Nevin, M.D., wrote in a Sept. 27 blog post that the system's vaccination policy resulted in the loss of approximately 150 employees, the equivalent of fewer than 90 full-time employees. Fewer than 48 full-time equivalents provided direct patient care and fewer than 12 full-time equivalents were nurses. Nevin also noted that ChristianaCare, which employed 13,412 during 2020, had also hired more than 200 caregivers during the last month alone.

Erie County Medical Center had roughly 400 hospital staff who were unvaccinated by New York's Sept. 27 deadline and placed on leave. These employees represent about 5% of its total workforce and have forced the hospital to halt elective inpatient surgeries and cut back on other services.

Henry Ford Health System reported on Oct. 5 that about 400 employees had voluntarily resigned due to the vaccination requirement, representing about 1% of the system's total workforce. Another 1,900, about 6%, had received medical or religious exemptions. The Detroit-based provider also noted that new hires "are already offsetting those team members who resigned."

Houston Methodist, the first to announce a vaccine mandate, said it had 153 resignations or terminations among its roughly 26,000-person workforce.

Indiana University Health had 125 of its 35,800 employees resign from their jobs due to the vaccine requirement. A spokesperson told Fierce Healthcare on Sept. 23 that many were part-time workers and that the departures were the equivalent of 61 full-time employees.

Inova Health dropped 89 of its 20,000-person workforce due to noncompliance with its Sept.1 vaccination requirement.

Kaiser Permanente announced that "just over" 2,200 employees from its nationwide workforce of roughly 240,000 had not met its vaccine requirement and were placed on administrative leave as of Oct. 4. The nonprofit said that the tally is declining daily, as suspended employees have until Dec. 1 to enter compliance and return to work.

Lewis County Health System said it has seen 30 resignations as of Sept. 11 in the wake of announcing its vaccine mandate and as a result has been forced to pause maternal health services. At that time, 165 of the provider’s unvaccinated staff had not yet indicated whether they would comply or leave the single-hospital system. Lewis County Health System employs about 650 people and will see its mandate go into effect Sept. 27.

MaineHealth representative Caroline Cornish told Fierce Healthcare that 58 out of its team of 23,000 had resigned and cited the vaccination requirement among their reasons, as of Sept. 24.

Med Center Health said it had fired 180 employees from its workforce of roughly 3,800 who had not been vaccinated by Sept. 1. It also highlighted the hiring of 178 vaccinated employees who would begin within a week of the firings.

Medical University of South Carolina Health fired five employees who had not met its June 30 vaccination or exemption deadline. It employs more than 17,000 people.

Mohawk Valley Health System announced on Sept. 28 that New York's mandate led 180 employees, about 5% of the workforce, to separate from the system. This has increased its vacancy rate from 13.7% to 17.5%. The system also noted that other unvaccinated employees have been placed on unpaid leave and have until Oct. 9 to receive a vaccine and return to their position. Hospital services are still operating at both of the system's campuses, although service delays and other limitations will be likely going forward.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio's administration said that roughly 5,000 of the city's public hospital healthcare workers had not met the state's Sept. 27 vaccination deadline. Although not allowed to work, city officials are reportedly hoping that those workers—about 10% of the public hospital system's workforce—will choose to be vaccinated and return to their jobs later that week.

NewYork-Presbyterian had "fewer than 250" team members who did not comply with a Sept. 22 vaccination mandate and "no longer work" at the organization, according to a statement provided to Fierce Healthcare. The system said it has achieved more than 99% compliance among its 48,000 employees and affiliated doctors and will see no interruptions in care due to the mandate.

Northern Light Health representative Karen Cashman told Fierce Healthcare that, as of Sept. 24, 89 employees had left the system due to its COVID-19 vaccine mandate. As of a Sept. 15 news conference, 91% of the system’s more than 12,000 employees had been vaccinated.

Northwell Health has reportedly fired about 1,400 one week after New York's vaccine mandate went into effect. This also includes at least two dozen employees at the manager level or above that did not receive COVID-19 vaccines by a prior internal deadline. It employed more than 76,000 workers.

Novant Health has fired more than 175 employees who were not compliant with its COVID-19 vaccination requirement. The system said Sept. 21 that it had initially suspended about 375 of its more than 35,000 total employees due to vaccination noncompliance. Nearly 200 of those employees became compliant during the five-day suspension period and avoided termination.

Olean General Hospital said it had seen 11 resignations ahead of New York’s Sept. 27 deadline for a first dose. As of Sept. 14, more than 250 of its 840 employees had not been vaccinated.

RWJBarnabas Health announced back in July that it had fired six employees at the supervisor level who had not complied with a requirement for upper staff to be vaccinated by June 30. The remaining 2,979 supervisors were vaccinated or received exemptions.

St. Claire Regional Medical Center said it had fired 23 staff who had refused vaccination. A spokesperson reportedly said these employees were a combination of full-time, part-time and pro re nata employees and represented “less than 1%" of its total workforce.

St. Joseph's Health in Syracuse fired 78 of its 3,810 employees who did not meet New York's statewide vaccination deadline. They were among 122 who were suspended and given until Oct. 8 to receive a vaccine or be fired.

St. Luke's University Health Network said that 68 full-time employees and 87 part-time or per diem employees had decided against vaccination and resigned as of its Sept. 25 deadline. Additionally, 668 had received a medical exemption, religious exemption or a temporary deferral and will undergo weekly testing. St. Luke's employs about 17,000 people.

St. Peter's Health Partners has suspended 322 unvaccinated employees out of its 11,000-plus workforce, as of Sept. 28. Those employees have until Oct. 8 to become compliant.

Tidelands Health had just a single employee out of 2,010 who did not comply with its mandate and chose to resign.

Truman Medical Centers/University Health saw 39 resignations among its workforce of roughly 5,000 due to a COVID-19 vaccination mandate.

UCHealth said that 119 out of its 26,500-person work did not receive COVID-19 vaccine or an exemption by the Colorado system's Oct. 1 deadline. A spokesperson said that those employees are welcome to reapply for their positions should they later receive the vaccine.

UNC Health has already seen 70 of its roughly 30,000 workers resign over a COVID-19 vaccination mandate originally scheduled for Sept. 21 but now delayed to Nov. 2. About 900 were still unvaccinated as of late September.

University of Vermont Health Network reported Sept. 28 that it had 30 mandate-related departures across three of its facilities—16 resignations at Alice Hyde Medical Center, 12 terminations at Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital and two resignations at Elizabethtown Community Hospital. These losses have compounded with a rash of non-vaccine-related resignations and hour reductions have led some of the system's hospitals to recruit travel nurses and postpone inpatient surgical procedures for at least one week.

Upstate University Hospital suspended or terminated 113 employees who did not meet New York's statewide deadline, as of a Sept. 30 report. Some of those workers will be able to return to their jobs if they receive a vaccine. The Syracuse provider employs more than 6,600 people.

Valley Health has terminated 72 workers who were unvaccinated by its Sept. 21 final deadline. It employs 6,300 staff

Ivermection 1.0 is no longer patented. There are tons of manufacturers that make it worldwide. If Merck charged 700 bucks for it you could still get it 99% cheaper somewhere else. Also, now that the U.S. media (unlike the rest of the world) has told everybody that it’s only for horses… it would be hard to market even if it wasn’t so cheap. The newest horse dewormer, Molnupiravir, (Ivermectin 2.0) already has a government contract to produce 10 million units. It’s mark up is 40 times the cost to make it even though Merck has said they will adjust the price for other countries depending on what they can afford. It won’t take 4 years to recoup the costs. It took them 6 months to develop compared to the normal 10 years. They also got it right on the very first try when the average drug that makes it through development and testing is 1 in 5,000. Merck will probably recoup their cost in less than a month or 2.

Pfizer is also working on a pill thats supposed to be out shortly. Pfizermectin.

It's the lack of ICU doctors and nurses to serve that surge capacity. You can't just grab a random MD or nurse and say "you're a Covid ICU person now". These are specialized positions that require training and experience. Furthermore many COVID ICU patients linger for weeks in the ICU, taking up resources that might have otherwise been used to help patients recovering from heart surgery, or car accidents, or who knows what else?

So if you say that vaccines aren't the only way out of the pandemic, then what is?

Natural immunity may work... or it may be like the cold or flu that you get every year as it continues to mutate. Furthermore because this is still a novel virus, we have no idea what the impact to the body are. We've been so busy trying to treat Covid pneumonia and keep people from dying that very little research has gone into what these long covid symptoms really mean in the body. What is physically happening that is causing alteration of taste and smell months after recovery? Long term fatigue? Brain fog? Blood clots (according to Sanje Gupta on the Joe Rogan podcast 60 times more likely to get blood clots from the Covid19 virus than from any of the vaccines)

If the answer is therapeutics, we may get there but we aren't there yet. Monoclonal antibodies, aside from being WAY more expensive than a vaccine dose are great, but they are temporary, don't teach the body how to fight Covid next time it sees it, and is issued under an emergency use authorization same as most of the vaccines - meaning many of the arguments against vaccination are the same arguments being ignored to get the monoclonals to try and stay out of the hospital. ("My body is a temple and I don't know what's in it")

Antivirals are on the horizon. Hopefully they'll be efficacious and have few side effects. But it could be months or years before they're available from your CVS pharmacy. So what we have now are three highly efficacious vaccines - that may or may not require a 3rd dose- that have been injected 6 billion times around the globe for over a year, with few side effects that are typically milder than the virus itself.

When Trump announced that he had cut the red tape and allowed these things to be fast tracked last year, I was sure that we were months away from this whole thing being behind us. And he we are almost a year later still fighting it. Not so much in everyday life because most everything is open again, even if sometimes you have to wear a mask. But as an airline we NEED corporations to feel comfortable staffing their offices again, allowing people to travel and attend trade shows again. Our industry can't survive unless business gets back to some semblance of pre-Covid normal.

So if vaccination isn't the cornerstone upon which companies feel comfortable doing that... then what is?

Thanks for being one of the few on these boards that makes sense.

ok good. Thankyou. But tell me again why you would even fire 1 person when ICUs are overwhelmed and dead bodies are scattered in the streets across the country. It would make more sense to hire more people wouldn’t it?

Because, just like us, they represent an insanely low percentage of the unvaccinated in their profession. To hell with them. They can find work elsewhere. Train another doctor/nurse that isn’t mentally ill.

Lol. Yea we don’t need everyone helping the overrun ICUs. Screw those patients. Also, they actually represent about 30-40% of their coworkers. There’s a huge chunk of them that only got the vaccine to not get fired.
