![*Wears a 3M dust mask* [568x1262 - 516KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/rIi4yE.png){kind=link}
I work for one of the largest hospital conglomerates in the country and even they stopped the enforcing of masking. It seems like it was based on a state by state basis and what the state "recommended." So dumb. They are still sending out notices that someone "tested positive" in the office. (I've worked from home almost 20 years, but they love to virtue signal by spamming us with the crap.)
I work the data end and they are finally discussing shutting down their covid dashboards, since the feds are no longer requiring the sending of all the data.
They are still sending out notices that someone "tested positive" in the office.
'member when your personal health was none of your employer's business? If the job requires a physical assessment, a doctor does it, and then just signs a paper saying "This person can do the job described"- they don't disclose anything (or they're not supposed to) that was found in the physical to the employer, it's just a "Yes he can work" or "No he cannot work".
Now, someone gets sick, everyone in the fucking company wants to know about it. How about fuck off, leave the person alone, let them fucking rest. This seems so retarded- say you test positive and are forced to stay home (I know you work "remotely" but let's say you didn't). Then, the company sends out an email to all of your peers that "Someone tested positive in the office". They look over and notice your desk is empty.
This is low-key your employer disclosing PRIVATE MEDICAL INFORMATION to the entire fucking email chain.
Oh absolutely! Plus all of us (20%) who refused all vaccines (religious exemptions, and, oh yes, us remote were required as well and threatened with "phase-out replacement") - the mandatory flu and covid ones - had to sign a form saying that no matter what we'd wear a mask in the office. I'm hoping that no one complies. It's another way to tell who is who.
It seemed that in most cases, when people just stood their ground against their employer's pressure to get the shot, it worked out in the end. That's what happened for me.
I've had several different doctors from very different fields and places tell me that "I'm smart for not getting the shot" now. The one ER doctor was telling me how it was causing all kinds of crazy reactions they'd never seen before. They always ask you specifically if you've gotten that "vaccine", and when he did, I was like "No, please don't try to ask me to get one because you won't convince me". He said he wish he hadn't gotten it, but he probably felt he had to in order to keep his job (he didn't say that part out loud).
That's what's really baffling. These college educated people with 8-12 years spent in study after high school are supposed to be the smartest of us, right? What's the takeaway from this?
