Yes, I understand you’re not promoting dangerous behaviour. I’m not saying it’s actually easy for management, just lamenting that it isn’t happening and expressing contempt for any suggestion (made by others, not you) that it’s A-OK for “care” workers to endanger their patients. Also criticizing management for not speaking up. I’m pretty sure if hospitals talked to the media they could get pretty positive coverage for a message along the lines of “in order to protect our patients, we would like to require our staff to be vaccinated; but the current laws/rules/regulations don’t allow us to do this”. Of course if the answer turns out to be a bad union agreement, then the blame might rebound on management for accepting such an agreement.
It doesn’t help that apparently some medical “ethicists” are against mandatory vaccination for health workers, on the same bogus grounds that get trotted out whenever the issue is discussed.
