Fun with math:
So of Novant's 35,000 employees, 1.1% refused to get a vaccine and were suspended.
But, having been suspended, 200 of those 375 did in fact get vaccinated.
And, when all was said and done, only 1/200 employees decided to lose their jobs rather than be vaccinated. i.e. we can achieve a 99.5% vaccination rate with appropriate incentives.
A North Carolina-based hospital system announced Monday that roughly 175 unvaccinated employees were fired for failing to comply with the organization’s mandatory coronavirus vaccination policy, the latest in a series of health-care dismissals over coronavirus immunization. Novant Health said last week that 375 unvaccinated workers — across 15 hospitals and 800 clinics — had been suspended for not getting immunized. Unvaccinated employees were given five days to comply.
