Full statement from Baylor Scott & White below:
We remain committed to protecting patients, colleagues and communities through our fully vaccinated workforce policy. As of Oct. 13, 99% of our workforce is now in compliance. We are focused on closing the gap and have decided to extend the employee and provider vaccination deadline to Nov. 15.
Why? This should not be terms of employment!
What is BSW going to do this a mass walk out? There is already huge shortages in the health care industry. Wake up people and hold your ground!
“We the people” had been forgotten!
Is BSW going to be held liable for vaccine injuries by forcing their employees to get the shot?
