An Alabama doctor watched patients reject the coronavirus vaccine. Now he’s refusing

I have a friend whose brother is an ER doc. Despite being vaccinated, tested positive for Covid. Fortunately he was asymptomatic, but was forced to quarantine because of the selfishness and stupidity of the vaccine defiant. I don't want to interact with them either. They are human scum.

You ready for the booster? I can't have it until January. 8 mo plus last jab I think.
 
Not sure I'm reading this right but San Diego

Staffed beds 6345 ICU beds 698 Is this beds that exist or people in those beds?

I believe that is the existing beds.

We've suffered 3,848 deaths in my county.

I don't see the "fullness" stat.

"ICU Occ is the percentage of staffed inpatient adult ICU beds that are occupied period divided by the total number of staffed inpatient adult ICU beds during the 7-day reporting period. Does not include psychiatric, rehabilitation, Indian Health Service (IHS) facilities, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) facilities, Defense Health Agency (DHA) facilities, and religious non-medical facilities."


Open the link above.

Don't select anything else before you:

Click the arrow to the right at the bottom of the map where it says "Confirmed by Pop".

Click repeatedly. It will scroll through several screens.

Click till you get to "ICU occ."

San Diego is showing 60-70% ICU occupancy (according to the color key, upper right)

If you zoom in and click on the county, a data box pops up.

That one for San Diego says ICU - 63% occupancy.
 
A doctor certainly has the right to stop patients from spreading disease to his other patients. There is no right to impose your ignorance on others. Good luck finding a doctor who will allow you to spread a virus ......just because. The doc should forget his education and do what the dumbest of patients tell him.
 
Worst case is the office staff gets it and then seeing lots of patients?

Super-spreader event.

How are they supposed to avoid this? Get tested every day because foolish people won't get vaccinated and then expect to be seen at office? Nuts to that. I support this doctor's decision.
 
The concern is that Deplorables, who refuse to get innoculated, refuse to wear masks, refuse to socially distance, have shown themselves to be nasty, dirty, unhygienic people who cannot be trusted to help contain a highly transmissible pathogen
