Mandatory Vaxxes - How Does That Affect You
I didn't know where to post this. First, I thought The Health Board then as I was writing it the Security & Survival Board. As I post it, I will put it in the General Discussion Board as it is meant for discussion and input.
I did post a bit about this observation and experience in a earlier post somewhere here however, I now think it is important enough to repost in its entirety and then follow up with a question.
On August 3, 2021, I took MrsMac to the Hospital ER, 50-minutes away in New York state. Our local hospital is not trusted by the locals or us based on some past experiences. As a matter of fact, the locals call it, "the animal hospital".
To make a long story short, five hours post our arrival at the ER, the ER Physician determined that MrsMac had the CCP Virus. During her tenure in the ER she was cold and I asked at the nurse station if she could have a blanket. About 5-minutes later a nurse came in with a blanket for her and me.
While draping MrsMac with the blanket and checking the bells and whistles hooked up to her, I asked the nurse, "How is your day going?"
The nurse looked at me and told me that she felt like crap and had a migraine level headache. She went on to say, "I took my second vaxx shot earlier today. My reaction to the first one was bad but this morning's vaxx has me on my heels."
I asked her why she even took the first Jab and she explained to me that Gov. Cuomo issued a mandate that all medical personnel that worked in the state had to be vaxxed by September 27, 2021, or would be terminated and the hospital is moving up the date to September 7. "I am a single mom and cannot afford to lose this job" she added.
This past Monday, MrsMac had a normal checkup scheduled so we went off to her doctor's office which was located in the hospital of the ER we went to earlier in the month. We walked into reception and there was nobody we recognized. They all acted like they were from the "B" team, and I ended up helping them with a few check-in procedures for the wife. After waiting for a bit (Unusual in the past) my wife was called and we walked over to a new, very young nurse.
As we walked through the catacombs of the back office, I only recognized one nurse. After MrsMac was shown her examining room and the normal tech items completed the nurse left and the doctor came in. After some small chit chat between my wife, the doctor, and me I asked her why there was all new receptionists and nurses. She said, "yeah. We have had some turnover. Some folks retired" and then changed the subject.
The next day I had my six months checkup however, I needed to have some blood work done before my appointment. I preregistered the day before and was given an appointment for forty-five minutes before my appointment with my doctor.
I showed up on time and the vampires den reception area was filled. I was given a pink slip of paper and was told to wait in the lobby. I walked back into the lobby and there were maybe a dozen folks with a pink piece of paper, standing and sitting around.
I hadn't been called five minutes before my doctor's appointment so I left and walked upstairs for my semi annual argument about my weight and other fun stuff.
At the door of my doctor's reception area was an elderly lady at a podium with a laptop computer and two people in line before me. After a bit of computer challenges, she looked past the two people in front of me and asked me to go to the checkout window in the bowels of the reception area. There was one person in front of me and once the window was free, I checked-in.
A quick comment. This is a big office that housed easily a dozen doctors, nurse practitoners, and physicians assistants. There is usually five receptionists and two check-out personnel. Counting the elderly lady at the front door there was three that day. The lady at the front door, the receptionist who checked me in, and one that was only answering phones. As I sat down, I noticed that there was a line at the door and at the one receptionist now.
About fifteen minutes after checking in, a nurse who I had never seen called my name.
I followed her through the catacombs of the inner office. As I was led through the maze, I only noticed one nurse who I recognized.
While the nurse was taking my blood pressure and other vitals, I asked her, "What is going on here. There is a skeleton crew on, and I recognize only one nurse. What is going on?" She explained to me that folks were on vacation, several foks retired, and there has been a bit of turn over. I then said, "oh I thought it might be the vaxx mandate." She said nothing other than, "the doctor will be write in" as she left the examining room.
Ten minutes later (unusual), the doctor came in or actually my nurse practitoner, that I had been going to for almost three years. He was curios of how my CCP Virus drama was going and he did a very thorough exam. He asked me if I had any questions. I said, "yes" and they were...
1) I used to manage a $160-million company, so I know the signs of a personnel problem in an organization.
2) I told him about what we experienced with MrsMac's doctor on Monday.
3) I told him about the back-up at the vampire's den.
4) Then I told him about his own office's front staff.
His replies were,
1a) "Yes, I know."
2a) "I do not belong to your wife's medical group so I cannot say what is happening over there."
3a) "I have no control over the lab."
4a) "Ahhh yes. There has been some retirements, and as we get closer to Labor day there are folks on vacation. Plus some
minor normal turn over." Being the prick that I am I suggested to him I think the staff issue was due to the vaxx
mandate and employees refusing to play. He looked down at his laptop and said nothing for a moment or two and then
went through my meds and asked if I needed a renewal on any.
Keep in mind that this medical system probably employees 10,000 folks from custodians to brain surgeons.
I am not the sharpest bear in the woods but even I can see that they are losing folks right and left due to the vaxx mandate. The hospital system is replacing them with newly minted college graduate medical staff and bringing back retired personnel to help plug the holes in the dike. How will this affect the health of folks I wonder.
Now my question to the group is...
As many progressive states impose vaxx mandates on medical and state employees, how will this affect your wait time and or service at state agencies like tax departments, DMV offices, health departments & offices, truckers, police & fire departments, other?
What happens when the White House impose vaxx mandates on all federal employees like the military, Post Office, Alphabet Agency's, truckers, other? Just think of the Afghanistan drama.
What happens when the company you work for is pressured by state and federal agencies to pass their own vaxx mandate?
73 & God Bless folks. Vaxx passports are coming along with vaxx mandates to you.
