If, according to them, everyone who ends up in the hospital is because of covid (because apparently all the other sickness disappeared in the last 20 months), then why do you care if the nurse is vaccinated or not? Everyone already has covid, it's not like you can catch it twice at the same time. At worse, the nurse will take a few days off, then come back fully immuned.
I don't get how it's hard. A simple compromise is to let unvaccinated nurses take care of non-covid patients. There, problem solved. Contact with covid is limited, but everyone can still work full-time. If the covid still spread inside an hospital, that's because hygiene measures are not well implemented, and shows a greater problem, cause it means many other viruses/bacterias are spreading too from patient to patient.
Make no mistake, the shortages of nurses, personal support workers and others in the health system are real. But those problems existed before COVID-19 and they will persist after the pandemic.
So why make the problem even worse? How is that showing any respect to health workers? If I was an overworked nurse, I'd be fucking pissed by a message like this, this guy just doesn't give a fuck about them.
But are people who don’t believe in vaccination really fit to be health workers in the first place?
How the fuck do you "Believe in vaccination". Anyone who uses the word "believe" with something scientific just has no idea what they are talking about, and is instead turning it into some weird cult. Nevermind that those nurses, minus covid, have all their vaccinations up tp date.
I don't think it is realistic to expect to stop transmission of a highly contagious airborne virus indoors, without full hazmat suits and negative-pressure rooms.
Even a properly-fitted N95 mask on a freshly clean-shaven face ( women too, because peach fuzz leaks ) dosen't stay well-adjusted once the doctor starts moving and bending over patients, yawning, talking, sneezing/coughing, etc.
LTC facilities and hospitals were compulsively washing everything and using masks yet they kept having outbreaks during all the periods there was significant transmission for anyone to bring the virus in.
However, those crucial lessons about airborne virus contagion are not being learned because governments and "experts" are stuck in a sort of delusional state where they conclude that a few studies hinting at a reduction of a few percentage points in transmission means "masks totally work and will prevent outbreaks".
