Do residents have to be vaccinated?
Fair point- my understanding is that most if not all residents are but the staff is a mixed bag. So if they mandate among the residents and staff it would be unfair to do so on the visitors. I was just surprised because they went from allowing no visitors to any with no real limitations.
They legally cannot require it or ask. If its an issue, they have no visitors.
Wait, what? What's your source for that claim?
They can legally both ask and require.
Why do you think they can't? (pleasedon'tlethersayHIPAA, pleasedon'tlethersayHIPAA)
No, they cannot. Grow up. And, its not fully approved yet. They can restrict visitors but that's it. Even the military cannot require it yet.

No cruises, no international travel, no college.
How else will people who refuse to get the shot be affected?
I have friends who are all upset their kids can't live on campus next year unless they are vaccinated. I don't know what they are going to do.
Colleges and employment.
Want to keep your job get vaccinated.
Want to take a cruise get vaccinated.
Nobody wants to go on a cruise. Sorry. Fetch just ain't happening.

Her dad, my uncle, works in pathology, he told her and her sister to take this seriously and get vaccinated. Her sister went ahead and got the vaccine. Her mom, who is a crazy Trumpster conspiracy theory mongering anti vaxxer (divorced by my uncle years ago) talked her out of getting the vaccine. And now her asshole anti-vaxxer mom will likely be directly responsible for her daughter dying from COVID because he listened to mom and didn't get it instead of listening to dad and getting it.
So I have a special level of anger for idiotic anti-vaxxers. Whatever "reasons" you THINK you have for playing games and avoiding the vaccine are just plain WRONG. You ARE hurting people.
Man. That is awful. Her own mom has killed her! I'm sure it will be the "libs" fault somehow.
This is what it will be like going forward, though. Hospitals filled with Trumpers since almost all the Dems/Independents will be vaccinated.
You guys believe ANYTHING![]()
