OLOL is givimg employees until 10/31 to be vaccinated or be fired.

IF they are in fact overwhelmed like they say they are, they would not turn away competent and capable staff.

We are all being fed bullshite. It is up to each and every individual if they choose to believe it or not.

On one hand you tell us how crazy it is and there are no beds and on the other hand you are ready to fire nurses and doctors?

Really not unusual for a healthcare provider to require their employees to get the vaccine.

Today, Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System announced to its organization it will require the Covid-19 vaccine for all team members, employed providers, residents, students in clinical rotations, contract staff, and volunteers. Implementation of the requirement will occur over several months concluding December, 2021.We have listened to our team members and physicians as well as tracked the rapid progress of this fourth surge to reach this decision. Throughout the pandemic, our teams have risen to the calling to care for those who need them. We continue that now but already we are straining to meet the demand. It is predicted that we have several weeks and possibly months before we reach the peak of this surge. We must act now to protect each other from spreading the delta variant and protect vulnerable patients from exposure. Vaccines are the best means of accomplishing this and more important than ever as the lasting step to end this pandemic. We should not wait any longer. Our health system is not alone in its decision to require a vaccine and joins many other healthcare organizations and expect others to follow. As a healthcare leader we believe we must take this step now for everyone’s safety and long-term community well-being.

There’s never been a more important time to demonstrate, by example, our responsibility to one another and all those we serve.

That will definitely help with the staffing situation

I thought they were short on staff

Like everything else surrounding this, it's a manufactured shortage. IF our media had any balls, they'd call the LDH/JBE bluff on this. Impose a halt to mandatory vaccinations out of an abundance of caution... frickers want to shut us down again over the same logic.

All team members means it's more than just medical folks,right?

They're short staffed and people are dying because of it, but they're issuing ultimatums like this?
Get the frick out of here with that shite.

You have one big propoganda machine disguised as a hospital.
