Over 170 Houston Hospital Workers Suspended for Refusing Vaccine, Fired in Two Weeks if Unresolved.




Over 170 hospital workers in Houston, Texas, are suspended for refusing the coronavirus vaccine and will be fired in two weeks if they maintain their position.

Fox News reported the employees are suspended without pay, as they missed the hospital’s mandatory deadline Monday.

Houston Methodist Hospital President and CEO Marc Boom said about the situation, “It is unfortunate that today’s milestone of Houston Methodist becoming the safest hospital system in the country is being overshadowed by a few disgruntled employees.”

“I know that today may be difficult for some who are sad about losing a colleague who’s decided to not get vaccinated,” Boom wrote in the memo. “We only wish them well and thank them for their past service to our community, and we must respect the decision they made.”

The Washington Post reported “dozens of medical workers” protested the policy outside the hospital. “Vaxx is Venom,” a sign apparently read. “Don’t Lose Sight of Our Rights,” read another.
But the hospital’s memo noted exemptions may be accepted based on medical condition, pregnancy, or religious belief:

Apply for and submit all required documentation for an exemption based on a medical condition (including pregnancy deferment) or sincerely held religious belief on or before May 3, 2021, in accordance with the procedure described in this policy.

Some 117 employees filed a lawsuit against the hospital last month, saying the employer can’t force employees to get the “experimental” vaccine.

Jennifer Bridges, a nurse on suspension who is among those suing, said, “We will fight this all the way to the Supreme Court. This is wrongful termination and a violation of our rights.”

The lawsuits attorney Jared Wood fill stated, “The legal question that has not been answered is ‘Can you make participation in a clinical trial a condition of employment?’”

Complete crock of BS IMHO

Good for them, Freedom is not free.

How does the hospital know? No HIPPA in Texas?

Hospitals can require their employees to get the flu shot, every year, through the employee health department at the hospital. Or the employee can provide the hospital with documented proof that they received the flu shot somewhere else. They’ve been doing that for years. It has nothing to do with HIPPA. And they have been allowed to function that way.

It looks like some hospitals are taking the same position with the Covid shot/s.

Since the hospital “believes” he vaccine is our savior, seems to me it would be easy to have a sincerely held objection to that religious belief?

I hope they sue the living shixt out of that hospital and win.

Good for them taking the vaccine should be a personal choice.All employees no matter what kind of work need to do the same

Where are the unions to protect these frontline workers' rights? lol

Wonder if Marc Boom has taken it?

Fire his ass yesterday if he hasn’t, just for being a hypocrite.

So now a few is 170?

Except this vaccine happens to be experimental.

Slummy rules only apply to those who can have a stick over their head. Admin fugs do whatever they want

It only works if you're a Leftist that the union approves of.....at least that was my union experience.

The flu shots are not expirimental for an emergency use. C 19 vacc is not cleared by the FDA and now there are treatments proven effective for the disease. It's allowed only under an emergency use provision and is experimental. Those who take it are Guinea pigs.

The anti vaxers will win this one and rightfully so. I expect many Woke suckers pushing this vaccine will face civil and criminal charges before this is over and H Methodist hasa good chance of being sued into bankruptcy.

Agreed.

Agreed. That would all be fine with me.

The hospital administrators are demanding their employees be involved in a clinical trial of an experimental "vaccine".

All participants of modern clinical trials are volunteers and not conscripted.

I figured. If people fear the C19, they are free to take the vipers venom.
