Incorrect, getting something jammed into your own body, is in fact is a personal choice. Sure, I recommend the vaccination to my patients, but if they say they don't want it, I don't berate them. Apparently that is the couth of this board, I guess that is why you guys aren't practicing medicine. I would hate to practice alongside you.

😂😂😂 Good thing your thinking doesn't matter

Hey, if they want to belive that, then medically I will explain why it isn't so, but if after they still want to... Then yes. Why would I be so disrespectful to that individual. Again, people are allowed to make decisions they want... My job is to give the medical facts and to try and explain them to the layperson as best as possible. I've literally had these situations arise. I feel bad, but at the end of the day they are adults with the ability to think and decide for themselves. The same go for people who have stage whatever cancer and decide to forego treatment, even with good success with said treatment or with jehova witnesses that won't accept life saving blood products, etc etc. This is not about Covid or the vaccination for me at this point, it's about the collective greater than thou attitude that seems to be mounting when people disagree, take a step off the pedestal. But thanks for the attitude as always 😘

What does this have to do with anything, then don't Join the military. You're govt property when you join. we are all or mostly all civilians here with rights. I think the vaccination is good, but I don't think this overbearing attitude of being a judgemental ass is good.

Who the F made you king. If people don't want it, they don't want it, let me bow down in your eternal greatness, you're so f'ing amazing. I don't buy into the nonsense dribble and I have oh, idk 15 years of medical experience and I still will allow people to make choices on what they believe. I hope it doesn't hurt when you fall off that cloud of judgement you're sitting on, when it implodes on your pathetic ass.

I will say, in the beginning, we were directed to put, at a minimum, "suspect Covid 19" on most charts, it did have to do with some payout, there were also some cases where Covid was put as a cause of death when we know the other underlying conditions were the culprit. In saying that, that happened in the infancy of this thing and now I'm not seeing that much, there also are no longer really any big payouts for charting that like there were last year.

I know some nurses that are making more than me right now, it's crazy, but good for them, get it while they can. Once the pandemic is over those jobs will dry up

I have a colleague visiting from Mississippi currently, stopped by the hospital here, was telling me that the situation in Mississippi is pretty bad. He works ICU and hospital floors. Also the nursing short staffing is getting brutal down there and it's contributing to the giant mess that is 2021.

I won't lie, this whole "hero" phrase has grown tiresome along my cohort of coworkers, we signed up for this field and pandemics are always a possibility. Just like when I was sent overseas in the military, that was always a possibility when I enlisted. I wasn't a hero then and I'm not now. I'm just a person that works in a field that crushes your soul most days. Instead of calling us heroes, just give us free coffee and more days off, we'll call it even 😊

What if Jack just put up an emoji regarding something in his personal life; female drama, etc.... I know a ton of people that love to put passive aggressive crap up for nonspecific reasons. I mean, sure, it could be because he's not traded, but it also could mean absolutley nothing.

I had a blast in Grand Rapids over the last weekend, the concert had general admission as standing room and I was 5 ft from the stage with fast pass entrance, we were all very intoxicated, as planned. I had to use the facilities but I wasn't risking leaving my prime spot to go to the bathroom.... I found a large popcorn bucket and just used that while standing there in the crowd; very inconspicuous 😂😂😂, set it down and enjoyed the rest of the show.

What really sucks is that no matter what, the team this season is going to be absolute crap; the the normal getting amped up for training camp and the beginning of the season is missing. Sure, we can be slightly excited to see some of the kids a bit, but there isn't much taking away from this Eichel saga.

It's the definition of being cautious, and thinking before reacting. Something this country doesn't excel at.

I should use the quote feature more, anyhow, that was what my response was based on, I barely skimmed the science stuff. I deal with that on the a daily, have no interest in hashing that stuff out here anymore.

It was around NS saying he has personal hesitations with close contacts having reactions, also with not going out much, the other stuff I had no comment on.

I never once mentioned conspiracy theories as an advocate for people not getting the vaccine, I do however believe that people are allowed a choice in the matter. I give my patients plain out facts when asked, and NS has very good personal reasons to not take it. Don't go twisting my words

Because you don't decide what's rational, your complex is insatiable.

Hold strong @New Scotland (NS) no one can make you get poked (at least not yet anyways) You aren't some idiot Twitter-head who doesn't want it because they're BS vegan and they think there's bacon in the shot. You have rational and reasonable objections, and those shouldn't be discounted by all the other lay-persons on the planet. Seems we have quite a few virologists, microbiologists and epidemiologists here on SS

I wouldn't count on that, I have several colleagues that are upset by this. Sure they're the overall minority but they're out there. For example, during flu season we have the option of showing proof of flu vaccination or we have to wear a mask during the season (pre-covid, of course) but now what, either get the shot or lose your job?

Will this still stand with everything going on with Cuomo? Not that I'm opposed to it at all

You're forgetting, this isn't a democracy here on SS, the law has been passed by the Supreme leaders,and we must obey.

How I feel when an already ridiculous thread becomes political.....seriously, take that $hit to the politics club.

Oh yeah that would suck! I have some good friends/colleagues that would slip me a little something if that instance arose, I could probably handle being in a wheelchair after some time of grief, but a Quadrapalegic would be tragic.

They might, I'm typically pretty careful, that doesn't mean I can control other drivers. I won't give up something I love out of fear 🙂

I have 2 motorcycles, we call them "donorcycles" in the hospital.... I'll ride until the day I die.
