O/T:- ⚠️Impressed with the leadership [The UK Party Politics Thread]

Do you think NHS should have the vaccine? I think they should, and I wish the NHS were in a position to sack them if they don’t.

Unfortunately it isn’t though.

Each NHS member of staff can make their own mind up. I don't think there should be a covid vaccine mandate. They could have introduced a vaccine mandate as soon as the COVID vaccine became available, but they are now. I don't know why they didn't do so in 2020 or 2021. It's a puzzle.
If they do enforce the mandate they will be in a position to sack them so you've not got long wait for your wish to come true.

Do they currently have to have the flu jab to be able to work in the NHS ?

As far as I know, no.

I don’t think they’ll enforce the mandate because even the psychopaths in charge can’t sack thousands of staff and hope no one notices the difference.

As you infer with your hypothetical scenarios, most of us would prefer unvaccinated staff to no staff at all.

it's terrible the questions we've been having to deal with. so difficult for all of us politicians too.

we have to have to find our own answers, as ever. I've been looking to the poets because I find that kind of contemplation calms my anxiety somewhat. came across this today:

Good Bones

Life is short, though I keep this from my children.
Life is short, and I’ve shortened mine
in a thousand delicious, ill-advised ways,
a thousand deliciously ill-advised ways
I’ll keep from my children. The world is at least
fifty percent terrible, and that’s a conservative
estimate, though I keep this from my children.
For every bird there is a stone thrown at a bird.
For every loved child, a child broken, bagged,
sunk in a lake. Life is short and the world
is at least half terrible, and for every kind
stranger, there is one who would break you,
though I keep this from my children. I am trying
to sell them the world. Any decent realtor,
walking you through a real sh!thole, chirps on
about good bones: This place could be beautiful,
right? You could make this place beautiful

That is not poetry - just sounds like some old drunk rambling on and on !!

[i961pie]

So do you send the unvaccinated paramedic away?

Seeing as you are asking hypothetical questions what would you do if your wife/ children went into hospital for a routine operation and a unvaccinated nurse/doctor gave them covid which put their lives in danger or worse?

You think, Banjo? Go ahead and define poetry... or are you the man who put the soul in arsehole?

[Elite_Pie]

Poetry was, at one time,
lines the ended with a rhyme.
Now it seem's that's just not it,
you scribble down any old sh!t.

They could catch covid anywhere and equally a vaccinated doctor or nurse could give them COVID.

[PedroTheFisherman66]

I hear the flu is a killer ...

[macstop]

It's no good arguing with the deluded, even my doctor does not recognition natural immunity, which according to the latest studies by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is 6 times stronger than any vaccine, and a vaccine that was experimental, yet my doctor still rings me up for a booster, maybe it's got something to do with the £15 a shot he gets?

In my opinion the whole man made pandemic as been about money and control, the lockdowns never worked, masks were a wast of time, 35 billion track and trace was a waste of time and money, it's estimated that we have spent close to a half a trillion on this in the UK.

Impressed with the leadership, i am not!

P.S. can someone please turn those bluddy stupid messages off in the supermarkets it's no wonder some people are deranged.
