If nothing else, it shows bad judgement, basic reasoning, and risk analysis skills. Who the hell wants someone that can't do those right on a fundamental level? Addition by subtraction.

Which is why I hate that the Vikes employ Cousins and (if rumors are true) Harrison Smith. Fuck your religion people are dying you selfish fuckwits.

I don't know what the dynamic is but we have a very large Jesusfuckistan population in the state. Fortunately for us the rest of us outnumber them by just enough to prevent us from being Texas.

The disparity is not nearly as close as it is in Secedistan.

Our local hospital confirms it has had their first deaths just this past month related to Covid since the pandemic began.

Thanks, Trumpers.

The whole "financial" argument about the vaccine and alternatives makes literally zero sense. The healthcare cost of getting covid isn't free- sure- Pfizer will make hundreds of millions, but I honestly can't see that being *more* than the hospital systems are bringing in via the insurance and medicare/medicade sources. There have been almost 2.8 million COVID hospitalizations, according to the CDC. There's a big range of approximate average COVID hospitalization cost, but the min I saw was $20,000. So the hospital system has brought in over $50BILLION.

That does not include the rush on "drugs" to fight for sick people, and by that I mean the fake ones that don't work. And the tiny problem, like you point out, that all of these drugs are big pharma, too (lest we forget the grifting by government people buying up supplies).

Somehow, Pfizer's profit is worse than the hospitalization system and other big pharma getting the money. Makes no sense at all.

Hospitals are not doing well at all in this pandemic. We don't make real profit off this type of treatment. We make money off the normal surgeries and invasive and non-invasive procedures. With those reduced (or temporarily suspended entirely), revenue dips and profit dies. This pandemic has been very very bad for hospital financials.

Since United Airlines announced that vaccines would be required for employees last month, more than half of its unvaccinated employees have gotten their shots. Employees who do not get vaccinated by Sept. 27 risk termination or unpaid leave.

Suddenly when told to put their money where their "deeply held beliefs" are, a vaccination isn't that bad.
 
Hiring people is expensive. It’s far preferable (cheaper)to give those holdouts a chance and motivation to correct their ignorant actions than it is to go through the hiring process.

That's expected. It's no different than any of the talking heads on the R side bashing Vaccines while they were some of the first 10% of people to get the shot(s).

This is how we drag people across the finish line kicking and screaming. It's telling your 5 year old to sit in their room without dinner for not picking their toys up at 6:30pm... By 8pm they are in the living room picking up their stuff because they want food...

Thats all this is.

What a quitter. My brother once sat in a chair for 8 hours to avoid practicing his cello for 20 minutes.

At least eight Tennessee public school employees – three elementary school teachers, one pre-k assistant, a cafeteria worker, a bus driver and two high school teachers – have died since the school year began after contracting COVID-19. The total is an imperfect tally of a grim statistic that no one government agency or private entity is currently monitoring in a systematic way.

The state Department of Education does not keep track of COVID-19 deaths of school employees, according to spokesman Brian Blackley. The Tennessee Education Association does not keep a formal count either. Brown said she is typically alerted when TEA members pass away, but has no way of knowing the underlying causes for every death nor does she routinely receive word on the deaths of non-TEA union members.

The eight deaths were confirmed through family members, school staff, pastors, media reports and online obituaries. In each instance, the school employees had been diagnosed with COVID-19 in the days or weeks prior to their deaths, and in each case there is no definitive answer on where someone contracted the virus. Individual schools cited privacy rules in declining to comment about the causes of death among their staff members.

Just heard someone I sort of knew at work died of covid over the weekend. This is the first person I'm even remotely aware of in my circles who has died.
