      Some hospital and nursing home administrators have dangled everything from vouchers for free breakfasts to a raffle for a car to straight cash payouts to get employees to roll up their sleeves.

      “It’s far too low. It’s alarmingly low.” - Neil Pruitt, CEO of PruittHealth, a nursing home chain in the South where only 3 in 10 of workers offered the vaccine so far have agreed to take it.

          The pushback comes amid the most lethal phase in the outbreak yet and it could hinder the government’s effort to vaccinate somewhere between 70% and 85% of the U.S. population to achieve “herd immunity." FULL COVERAGE: http://apne.ws/aVjFCCL http://apne.ws/V9PiY9E

          I feel like the US has an education deficit in the South. All seems a bit third world down there.

          The fact that these people are being chastised for exercising their right to say no is mind blowing.

          it's more than their right to say "no". This kind of cognitive dissonance is unbelievable. They are witnessing the deaths of their patients, and they are unwilling to mitigate that?

          Dude what? You are the CEO of @PruittHealth. Make it a requirement of your employees. If they don't want it, they can resign.

          And before I get harangued for being insensitive to their feelings. Remember that there is mountains of data on its effectiveness/safety and we don't ask our children first if they want to see the data on their MMR vaccines. We listen to public health officials tell us to do it.
