Anti-Vaxxers Are Sharing Tactics Online On How To Avoid Mandatory Vaccines, And It’s Pretty Scary

101

So, if you’re not outraged enough already over a previous post about the bizarre behavior of the anti-vaccine crew, here’s another example that is immoral, dishonest and can even put the lives of others in serious risk.

If you want to work in the healthcare industry, where you are exposed to bacteria, viruses and all kinds of illness and disease more often than regular people, it just makes sense that your immune system is as robust and strong as it possibly can be. Not just for yourself, but for those that you come in contact with too, as their own immune systems can be severely compromised and any infection can quickly become life threatening.

Therefore, most employers make it mandatory that healthcare professionals are fully vaccinated, even against ‘minor’ things like the flu. This brings a dilemma for anti-vaxxers who want to be doctors, nurses etc. as they have to choose between their ill-founded principles, and the realities of medical science.

Now, there appears to be a Facebook group for these people to share their tips and hints of how to cheat the system, and enter the healthcare world unvaccinated. From getting friends receipts, to finding stores that give receipts before the shot so they can run away, these people are infuriatingly brazen about their selfish behavior. Some even go as far as to refuse TB testing or x-rays. Because things were so much better when we were ‘pure’ without these forced, evil-government ‘toxins’ and dying in our 30’s, right?

    The most infuriating is when I see actual medical students asking for advice how to cheat the system. If you can't believe in vaccinations after more than a 100 years worth of scientific evidence, how can you ever be a good doctor? They kind of make me think of moles in police. What is their motive?

    More ammunition for you: Dairy farmers inoculated themselves and their families with cow pox as early as the 18th century. It was folk medicine. It worked!

    And they were surrounded by healthy people who people were also vaccinated. Herd immunity has been protecting all of us......including the idiots.

    Well the positive message to get from this is that because they have made this so public, places giving out vaccines will start giving out receipts AFTER they have actually been vaccinated!

    They should be required to be witnessed being given the vaccine. There’s ways you can’t avoid getting them, just like there’s cheats. The medical community needs to implement that you must have a physical medical witness, maybe.

    If they would just endanger themselves it would be ok with me. But they endanger small children, elders and ppl who cannot vaccine because of allergies or immune issues.

    not only that, if a nurse or a doctor makes a critical mistake, they could be facing a serious lawsuit suspending their medical license with no chance of getting it back. there is a reason why the law is very strict in medicine and these idiots think that they can get away with it.

    Okay...so DON'T get the vaccines...and then when the hospital/patient discovers it was YOUR fault...enjoy your jail time or lawsuit. You put innocent peoples lives in jeopardy all because of what you "Think" are dumb vaccinations. Hence why all the old school diseases are coming back in a HUGE way. Just like a story here in Richmond, VA about a group of cheerleaders at a local high school have been exposed to a Mumps outbreak....how much do you want to bet it's because someone's nutjob of a mother didn't vaccinate her child. THINK PEOPLE!! UGH.

    Not only that, but they’re risking the hospitals money, with a lawsuit that could’ve easily been avoided, if only they’d been properly vaccinated.

    They are seriously scared the the TB test is worse than having TB? Idiots. Let's just spread TB around the damn hospital to all the patients that have immune problems. Get in a new profession if you don't want to follow their rules. They have protocol and policies for a reason in the healthcare field. It's so you don't get sick and you don't spread disease.
