Plus a vaccination rate of 40% in the Panhandle is far too low to arrest the spread of Covid-19.

Plus “will be safe whether our team is vaccinated or not vaccinated.” Gaa. That also fits in with the governor’s offer to pay bonuses to anyone fired in another state over a hospital vaccine mandate to move to Nebraska.

It is the unvaccinated who are primarily spreading and becoming seriously ill from Covid-19.

Her arguments are Republican talking points, not medical information.

A little less than 10% of the county has had the disease.

Box Butte General Hospital is considered a Critical Care Access Hospital by the federal government. According to state data, the hospital has twenty-five beds total.

Her argument was that requiring vaccinations would cause an unbearable administrative load tracking employees and patients, and would jeopardise the safety of those same patients (by increasing the workload of nursing staff who would quit).

Because Repubs are only interested in dragging out the pandemic in the hope that they can use voter frustration to win next year. Hence why they’re doing everything they can to not only incentivize resistance to vaccination efforts, but also punish those who cooperate with such.
