North East UNISON boss says Covid-19 vaccine mandate for NHS staff could see Government 'make same mistake twice' - Chronicle Live

The latest official data shows around 89.9% of NHS workers have been double-jabbed but that leaves an estimate of around 103,000 staff who have not had a Covid-19 vaccine.

'm just a little surprised there are so many anti vaxxers in the NHS

a lot of ethnic minorities work in the NHS

Yes and I read that the NHS could lose tens of thousands of staff. That link is Unisons official position, their initial warnings about compulsory vaccination were more blunt.
I'm just a little surprised there are so many anti vaxxers in the NHS.

There is a difference in losing tens of thousand staff and tens of thousands of staff being sacked. Says something when there are ridiculous amounts of nhs staff refusing the jab doesn’t it.

What are you insinuating?

 

[big-all]

not all nursing staff have direct contact with patients and some can be deployed in "passing" non contact or remote roles

a lot of ethnic minorities work in the NHS

So what?

Sack them if they won't have a jab.

not all nursing staff have direct contact with patients and some can be deployed in "passing" non contact or remote roles

But they still have contact with staff and some of the rest of the human race.

Outrage as NHS staff asked to believe in medicine | The Daily Mash

OUTRAGED NHS staff are threatening to quit after being asked to believe in the efficacy of medicine to prevent disease and illness.

Frontline health workers told they must get vaccinated to protect themselves and their patients have reacted angrily to the idea that modern medical science has anything to offer.

Senior nurse William McKay said: “I’m okay with doing healing stuff to other people. More fool them.

“But just because I do it doesn’t mean I have to believe in it. That was never part of the job. They don’t make a New Look worker have total faith in the clothes they sell, so why is this any different?

“I’m not some credulous idiot. I’m a highly-qualified professional, so when I see the largest vaccine programme in history protecting hundreds of millions from Covid, I think ‘I wonder what Jeremy Corbyn’s brother thinks about this?’

“Personally I prefer to keep an open mind. Do people admitted to hospitals and treated by doctors get better? Yes. Could that just be coincidence? Yes also.”

Steve Malley of Leatherhead said: “Makes sense to me. I’m an electrician and I don’t believe in electricity. Never seen it. Doesn’t exist.”

What are you insinuating?

ethnic minorities have higher rates of vaccine scepticism.

no insinuation, it’s fact

He'll believe in it when he touches some 400v wiring.

scepticism.

Make that ignorism.

 

[Notch7]

Make that ignorism.

I believe it stems from White people testing drugs on coloured people and it’s reinforced by religious leaders and friends and relatives spreading misinformation on Facebook, what’s app etc…..you know the sort of nonsense peddled by gas112, John the plum, Ellal etc etc

So ethnic minorities are more gullible?

So ethnic minorities are more gullible?

I really don't know if it's gullible, ignorant, misguided, stupid, selfish, cowardly, old fashioned, religious, racist, lazy, or plain evil.
