Major Hospital Issues ‘Updated’ Covid Vaccine Mandate for Caregivers

A major hospital network in the United States has issued a directive to caregivers requiring them to take the new “updated” mRNA Covid-19 vaccine recently approved by the FDA.

In a copy of a letter circulating on social media, the Providence hospital network announced employees have until Nov. 30 to roll up their sleeves for the new vaccine, or submit a medical exemption.

“We’ve all heard that cases of COVID-19 are on the rise and the latest updates to COVID-19 vaccines are proving effective at preventing serious illness from the latest strains,” the letter states, adding, “The updated MRNA vaccines were approved by the FDA on Sept. 11 and are expected to be available soon.”

“We updated our COVID-19 Vaccination Policy and caregivers need to receive the most up-to-date Covid-19 vaccine available,” the letter tells workers.

The letter adds employees who don’t take the jab or submit a waiver by Nov. 30 “may be removed from the schedule, placed on unpaid leave and may be subject to termination for continued non-compliance with their facility policy.”

News of the vaccine directive, reminiscent of Covid-era mandates, comes as Infowars host Alex Jones warned last month the Biden administration was preparing to rollout new Covid restrictions beginning with mask mandates for federal workers like TSA agents, followed by social distancing and lockdown orders.

Following Jones’ report, several universities announced a return of mask mandates and social distancing policies, while various schools have also shut down temporarily in response to reported outbreaks.

Democrats like New York Gov. Kathy Hochul so far are stopping short of issuing mandates, but on Wednesday she encouraged New Yorkers to take the new jab regardless of previous Covid-19 vaccine status.

“Tell everybody don’t rely on the fact that you had a vaccine in the past, it will not help you this time around,” Hochul said.

Joe Biden earlier this month also told the press he was seeking congressional funding for the new jab, and said, “tentatively, it will be recommended…recommended that everyone get it, no matter what they’ve had before.”
