Dr. Michael Osterholm: 'Imperative' That Healthcare Workers Are Vaccinated

[turdfurgeson]

They should close the border if it’s such a serious problem

[richardlandis]

It’s imperative to remain safe. Turn off your TV.

[austinbutler]

Do you ever wonder why so many health care workers and medical professionals refuse to get vaccinated?

[kristyleedolls]

Why aren't they talking about how important diet and sunlight is when it comes to covid/illness?

[kneegerman]

Don't forget that media invites only one side of "experts". No dialogue at all

[mrk]

Hey this is the guy that said we would lose like 5 million people in the US last year

[larrygreen]

If it is such an variant then why the borders open.

[sherrystephens]

They make sure that the medical companies can't be sued. That should scream volumes. My family members are being forced. I would have to find another field to work in.

[krl]

who's going to be working in the hospitals when they all get fired for noncompliance?

[flowersinherhair]

Have fun staffing your hospitals with nurses.

[princessgumbo]

I’m a paramedic and I am NOT getting vaccinated. This pandemic and how much power the medical industry has is the reason why I will be out of the medical field. I hate it.

[januszdworak]

I will support workers who oppose the medical tyranny in any way possible. We can not give up now lest the criminals come up with more demands and restrictions.

[williamwinder]

Do tell us what are the long term side effects? Oh that's right you can't. Human testing trials are still going on.

[kristyleedolls]

The jab isn't preventing illness.

[oppressedspeakeroftruth]

I'm fearful of hospitals and doctors in general. I had no idea they are controlled and owned by politicians and their friends.

[ricksmith]

My body my choice, especially if naturally occurring antibodies are more effective and don’t run the risk of causing neurological damage

[pretentiousprogressive]

How did they all survive the pre vaccine pandemic then???

[brooketaylor]

People are waking up from the matrix left and right (pun intended.)

You guys meant to cause the great reset, but because you pushed so hard and so fast you ended up causing the great awakening! Well done 👍

[brittbent]

The Moderna and Pfizer vaccines are still in “clinical trials” until 2022 and 2023.
The FDA has never given “full approval” for any of the vaccines.

[casualobserver]

Did he just say “if they don’t take the carrot, use the stick” that’s a violent threat. Period!
