Up to 50% California healthcare workers refusing to take Covid vaccine
Staff Writers 22 hrs ago

3 minutes

Up to half of healthcare workers in some parts of California are refusing to take the coronavirus vaccine, despite scientific evidence that it is safe.

This could lead to a potential surplus of doses and renewed questions about the system for allocating them, the Los Angeles Times is reporting.

At St Elizabeth Community Hospital in Tehama County, fewer than half of the 700 hospital workers eligible for the vaccine were willing to take the shot when it was offered.

Up to 40% of LA County’s frontline workers who were offered the vaccine also refused, according to county public health officials.

So many frontline workers in Riverside County have refused the vaccine – an estimated 50% – that hospital and public officials have met to strategise how best to distribute the unused doses, Public Health Director Kim Saruwatari told the Times.

The extent to which American healthcare workers from other states are refusing the vaccine is unclear but reports of lower-than-expected participation rates are emerging around the US, raising concerns for epidemiologists who say the public health implications could be disastrous.

Some healthcare workers are sceptical of vaccines; others worry that the development of the coronavirus vaccine may have been rushed.

Still others believe that because they have been able to avoid infection for months by wearing masks and taking other precautions, they can continue to do so, the LA Times reports.

Debate continues about the best way to distribute the vaccine. Florida has adopted a first-come, first-served approach for the elderly, leading to criticism – but also to a potentially faster rollout to a vulnerable population.

President-elect Joe Biden, who criticised President Trump’s vaccine development efforts during the presidential campaign, complained earlier this week that “the Trump administration’s plan to distribute vaccines is falling behind, far behind”.

When healthcare workers, the ones supposedly at most risk and who have witnessed how Covid "RAVAGES" the body, are not convinced that the benefits of vaccine outweigh the risks, something must be going on behind the scenes.

50% of hospital doctors, 60% nurses reluctant to get Covid-19 vaccine


3 minutes



Not all health professionals in Greece’s hospitals intent to get the vaccination against Covid-19 expected to be launched in the country at the end of the month. 6 out of 10 nurses do no want the vaccine, while the rate of doctors is at 50%. hospitals across the country.

Already last week, health professionals started to declare to authorities whether they will be vaccinated and newspaper ethnos reveals the data collected from hospitals in Athens, Piraeus and Thessaloniki.

Nurses are reportedly wary and just 35% to 40% have stated that their intention to get vaccinated.

It is noteworthy, however, that about 6 out of 10 nurses are extremely cautious and say no to the vaccine. A fact that concerns the Ministry of Health according to information obtained by the daily.

Hospitals in Athens

According to data available to ethnos, the medical staff in the largest health units Health Units is around 50% positive to the vaccine, while the percentage among the nurses reaches 46%.

Those who work in ICUs and Covid-19 have a greater participation, which is also attributed to the dramatic experience they have gained during all the months of the pandemic with patients losing their lives.

The rest of the staff in Athens hospitals recorded a percentage of vaccine intention at 30%.

Hospitals in Piraeus and Islands

In the hospitals of the 2nd Health District (2nd RAE) of Piraeus and Islands, the doctors said a relatively higher percentage of “yes” to the coronavirus vaccine.

Data show that 60% of doctors want to be vaccinated and 40% of nurses.

Hospitals in Thessaloniki

In the hospitals of Thessaloniki where most deaths from coronavirus have been recorded especially in recent months, the picture does not differ much from the rest of the country.

In the total staff of the Health Centers, the percentage of those who declared their intention to the vaccine reaches 53%, while in the Hospitals it reaches 52%.

In Northern Greece, nurses are also more reluctant and fewer than doctors said “yes” to get the vaccine.

The registration of health personnel concluded today noon, the results are to be announced later at the Monday live briefing.

The first batch of vaccines doses, a total of 300,000, will be used for health professionals who are in priority and have already expressed their intention.

Free vaccine also dowan. Get the shot over and done with so that we can start opening the borders.

Told you guys vaccines are no go and many people are aware of its danger. Happy that many people make sense of it.

But some boomers in this forum still have it old era thinking of listen to the govt and believe that vaccine will help your body. Your govt is not your friend, they help themselves only. No vaccine can help you, all vaccines are toxic, especially this covid ones.

You will never know what they put in the vaccines and might have harmful stuffs not listed in the ingredient list of the vaccine too.

In Aus, those take vaccine kanna the HIV virus. pple die after taking vaccine in the USA. your vaccine injury and death will not be immediate for some pple but it might come in months or years later.

If you make some effort in understanding your immune system, your god given protection of your body and health, you will know how to strengthen it and no need any vaccine at all. Vaccine is an insult to the immune system.

Most US COVID-19 vaccines go idle as New York, Florida move to penalise hospitals

NEW YORK: More than two-thirds of the 15 million coronavirus vaccines shipped within the United States have so far gone unused, US health officials said on Monday (Jan 4), as the governors of New York and Florida vowed to penalise hospitals that fail to dispense shots quickly enough.
In New York, hospitals must administer vaccines within a week of receiving them or face a fine and a reduction in future supplies, Governor Andrew Cuomo said, hours before announcing the state's first known case of a new, more infectious coronavirus variant originally detected in Britain.
"I don't want the vaccine in a fridge or a freezer, I want it in somebody's arm," the governor said. "If you're not performing this function, it does raise questions about the operating efficiency of the hospital."
New York hospitals on the whole have dispensed fewer than half of their allocated doses to date, but performance varied from one group of hospitals to another, Cuomo said. The NYC Health + Hospitals system, the city's main public hospital network, has only administered 31 per cent of its allotment, compared with 99 per cent for a few private hospitals in the state.
In Florida, where officials have put senior citizens ahead of many essential workers for getting the vaccine, Governor Ron DeSantis announced a policy under which the state would allocate more doses to hospitals that dispense them most quickly,
"Hospitals that do not do a good job of getting the vaccine out will have their allocations transferred to hospitals that are doing a good job at getting the vaccine out," DeSantis said at a briefing.
"We do not want vaccine to just be idle at some hospital system," he added, although he did not say they would face fines.
Florida will also deploy an additional 1,000 nurses to administer vaccines and will keep state-run vaccination sites open seven days a week, he said.
UK VARIANT FOUND IN NEW YORK
Cuomo's announcement that the more contagious COVID-19 variant known as B.1.1.7 had been confirmed in a man in his 60s living in a town north of Albany gave new urgency to the state's efforts to accelerate vaccinations.
At least three other US cases of the so-called UK variant have been documented since last week, one each in Florida, California and Colorado. None of the four patients has a recent travel history, meaning the variant was likely spreading person-to-person within each of the communities where it turned up.
Neither the UK variant, nor a similarly more contagious strain first found in South Africa, is believed any more lethal than the original form of the virus. Scientists say newly developed vaccines should be equally effective against both.
But medical experts worry that the emergence of a more communicable variant could accelerate a months-long surge of infections and hospitalisations already straining US healthcare systems to their limits.
The US death toll has climbed to well over 350,000 out of more than 20 million known infections to date, with the fatality rate averaging 2,600-plus lives every 24 hours over the past week.
The staggering human toll, together with an upending of daily social life and a stifling of economic activity, has made the slower-than-expected uptake of available vaccines all the more vexing to authorities.
'WE HAVE TO DO BETTER'
Some of the problem has been attributed to widespread distrust of immunisations, even among some healthcare workers, owing in part to the record speed with which COVID-19 vaccines were developed and approved 11 months after the virus emerged in the United States.
But some US officials also have cited a lack of adequate planning and logistical glitches in launching the most ambitious mass inoculation campaign in the nation's history.
The federal government has distributed more than 15 million vaccine doses to states and territories across the country, but only around 4.5 million have been administered so far, according to data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released on Monday.
Those figures put the government far short of its goal of vaccinating 20 million people by the end of 2020, although officials said they expected the rollout would pick up significantly this month.

"We have go to do better, and we are going to keep doing better, and I promise you, you will see in the next two weeks numbers increase substantially," Surgeon General Jerome Adams told CBS News in an interview.
Dr Amesh Adalja, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, said New York and Florida were being "overly bureaucratic" in penalising hospitals over vaccine deliveries even as they coped with soaring patient caseloads.
"Instead of fining hospitals, why not give them more resources to do this, more money, more staffing?" he said in a telephone interview.
New York has dispensed about 175,000 doses of the 896,000 it has received since mid-December, according to CDC data. Florida has dispensed 265,000 of the 1.14 million doses it received.
Monday also marked the first day when some Americans were due to receive their second vaccine shots, three weeks after getting the first. Among them was Maritza Beniquez, a healthcare worker in Newark, New Jersey.
"I now have body armor," she said after receiving the dose in a video shared on Facebook by state officials.

There are longer queues for iPhones than there are for the Covid vaccine that's for sure.

When the majority of the earth's population are not interested in being vaccinated it's pretty obvious that very few believe all the fearmongering.
