Insane FB Group, " Healthcare Patriots"....Yikes, loads of misinformation...
I myself am an RN and not all Nurses are able to utilize their critical thinking skills regarding getting the covid-19 vaccine....they drank all the koolaide from Foxx and tRumpsters....
I got invited to the " Healthcare Patriot's" Group....from a right wing nurse friend/ex-co-worker... Yikes...this is probably backed by a devoted misinformation center against covid-19 vaccines, anti-maskers types....like DeSantis style voice...Now, they focus on fighting the employer/ hospital mandates for the vaccine or go Bye-Bye....I don't know how long I can stand it but it does give me insight into the other perspective, the illogical thinking of those who have been clinically/medically trained...I am in great dismay....coming to recognize the power of lies, brainwashing....Yikes! Here is what I posted.... snip? I got my vaccine as I have underlying heath concerns...I did fine...still working, work with covid-19 clients with full PPE. I'm trying to grasp the no mandate thing...I don't want the vaccine forced....the reasonable negotiation option...respecting the employee is essential....but my strong clinical/ epidemiology background supports all clinical caregivers to think outside the box...What do you deem safe for ALL? This is bigger than just one or two or 6....it's the entire community....I wish to never harm another...." Do no Harm" motto. Ohio Nurses Association has taken the middle of the road approach ....talking about negotiating with employees verse actually stating what they really need to do and vax-up...I ONA's monies really is strong from Unions...> end Here is Dayton Ohio area....Mandatory vaccines for all healthcare workers has been issued with each hospital group, Children's, Premier, Kettering Systems set end dates like October 1, December 1 2021 to get vaccinated... Posters and the sight/Group are trying to establish protest marches....they also post/links what the exceptions are to not get vaccine such as religious, pregnancy, stuff like that so they can try and " fit into a category.... ![]() It is the same jargon one see/reads on FB under local news sites posting discussion about infections of covid, masking, etc....awful anti vaxxer, anti-maskers hateful stuff...which has been effective because the misinformation has benefited the proliferation of Delta variant... I keep shaking my head, jaw dropping ..I really struggle with all this effective misinformation out there... I actually want the site shut down....they overall remind me of the gun nutz that stood outside state capitols with the AR-15's guns... Go look if you can...What does others hear thing? I ask because I struggle with this illogical goal of healthcare workers not seeing the simple, clinical wisdom of getting vaccinated with a lethal virus...

3. Try and Get Anderson Cooper on this
He singlehandedly got some of the worst subreddits shuttered after he reported on them. People had been trying for years to do so, but zilch until he became involved. For real -- tweet him and his producers.
