One of the physical therapist I was seeing said that he had refused the vaccine, and I refused to make any more appointments with him. The therapy place was very good about it. He just volunteered the information, I never asked.
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

What is even happening?
But I thought his wife had more common sense, and I don't even get how she can continue at her job without proof of vaccination at this point.
Last I knew, ignorant niece in Georgia (who had Covid in March 2020, and whose husband and at least one of their kids were diagnosed ~March 2021) was refusing the vaccine. She's also a nurse (who works at a hospital). I don't think they should be allowed to work without the vaccine. Patients have a reasonable right to receive care from healthcare providers who are trying not to spread this thing.
In the 90s, when I worked in the Mass. General finance department, in a building across town, in which we did not provide patient care at all, they tested me for TB, chicken pox antibodies (this was before that vaccine), and MMR antibodies, and I had to provide proof of all my vaccinations, before I could begin orientation.

Good. I hope all of his clients react like that.

Wow, sj. You would think it would be required by his employer. My medical offices wouldn't let me come in to do work until I had my vaccine, because they were concerned for my exposure. All the doctors and medical staff I know are vaccinated.

And, of course, the University I work at has been informed that we cannot require the vaccine for either students or faculty/staff. Again, Texas.

Yeah, even Hopkins isn't requiring staff be vaccinated. (At least they weren't when the vaccines started rolling out.) Which i really don't get because they do require staff get flu vaccines.

As I understand it, employers like mine don't feel soild requring this vax like they do others because it's only been approved on an emergency basis. When that status changes, my employer has indicated they may be more open to requiring it.
I'm so sorry, askye.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Our HR dept has said that they cannot require us to get vaccinated but they have the right to ask if we have been. Not sure what that means, probably nothing until the safety requirements for being on site are relaxed.
IJWTS I am not enjoying today from a work perspective. Too many people expecting me to do too much work.
