What’s your point? The vaccines don’t work?

Will whoever is in charge just flip the switch already?
I'm curious to know if the vaccinated become zombies or if the rest of us do. I know it's one or the other.

Hopefully these infected people easily fight COVID like most of us and make a positive contribution to herd immunity so we take small steps to get out of this mess.

Does a vaccinated person who gets covid obtain a different sort of immunity than either a vaccinated person who didn't or an unvaccinated person who did?

OLOL only recently put in a Vaccine mandate for all employees. I think by 15 August, all employees must show proof of vaccination to come to work.


Ochsner is doing something similar:

Get the vax: You get a special nametag telling everyone you have been vaccinated.

Don't get the vax: Routine testing, M95 required, and a nametag telling everyone you haven't been vaccinated. This nametag is in the shape of a golden star of David.

I only lied once above.

It happens. Happens with the flu. There have been seasons where they treat people in tents.

so then, were none of them vaccinated? and why not?


Well don't know, absent a mandate, My guess is some did not want to take it. After consultation with my Doctor, I took the Pfizer vaccine back in March and had no problems with it.

As some additional information, driving down Perkins near the Essen intersection, as of 12 noon the billboard there which totals the COVID numbers at Ochsner, BR. General and OLOL, the totals were about 360 un-vaccinated and 55 vaccinated, which is and 86% to 14% proportion consistent with what National averages are.

I think the Hospitalization rates are even more skewed towards the unvaccinated.

Yes.

How many asymptomatic flu cases got regularly tested prior to 2020? This worldwide pandemic is one of altering definitions.

That's fine do as you please. I am sure you are not the only one lying.

However, I have personally been against mandates before the COVID vaccine gets full FDA approval. However, the more I read, it appears mandates meet Constitutional standards.

Indiana U mandated COVID-19 vaccines and students filed a class action against IU, a lower court ruled in favor of IU, it was appealed and the 7th Circuit US Court of Appeals ruled 3-0 in favor of Indiana U. All 3 Judges would be considered more Originalist, similar to the late Justice Scalia (my personal favorite) as 1 was appointed by Reagan and the other 2 Trump. They cited a US Supreme Court ruling from 1905 whereby MA mandated the Smallpox vaccine, some residents filed suit and the US Supreme Court sided with the State of MA.

Recently the question of mandates has come up regarding LSU, in addition to OLOL, Oschner, etc. The AG Landry has been saying nobody can make mandates and he has threatened Litigation for example against LSU. Under LA law, the LA Dept. Health has the legal authority to approve mandates, but they have only done so if they get a request. Tulane, Xavier, Loyola in New Orleans all asked for legal authority to do a mandate and it was granted. According to the LDH, they make no distinction between Private and Public Schools.

Interesting article from the LSU Reveille that documents what I noted above. On another note, it is clear that the LSU admin were lying. Also, the Current President Tate based on his quote sounds very much like a Conservative or maybe more Libertarian in his response.

So my view, once the vaccines get FDA approval, mandates will be the norm.

Three Our Lady of the Lake urgent care centers in the Baton Rouge area have temporarily closed due to COVID cases among staff


well if they stop firing people for refusing the poison jab they might have more then 3 nurses on staff to run the place

go woke go broke

the whole lie about hospitals being over run is just because more then 5 people showed up and they only have 1 nurse still working there because of their own dumb arse vax rules

Ok, thanks for the clarification, I went back and read the local BR media reports and yes, it is starting 15 August, they have to begin getting the Vaccine and everyone by December is required to have it. BR General is a little more restrictive requiring everyone by 30 September.


Politico reported that the FDA is on track to give the Pfizer vaccine approval in September which might be why these hospitals are using the dates they are.

This story isn't about the OLOL Hospital. These are the Lake After Hours urgent care clinics.

My friend is a PA with Lake After Hours and he has been telling me for a couple weeks now about how many staff have been out with Covid.

It wasn't 3 different outbreaks at 3 different facilities. There have been staffing issues due to covid around all of their facilities so wait times for patients has skyrocketed. They are trying to consolidate resources so they can see patients faster.
