Heart Attack Zack

I have two years of ICU experience, and the past 18 months of that have been in a COVID-ICU. I had a severe allergic reaction to my first dose of moderna (major swelling of my face and tongue with extreme difficulty breathing. I rode via ambulance to the ER while breathing through an NPA). None of my doctors recommend me getting the second dose/booster. As much as I would like to be fully vaccinated, after being hospitalized and almost getting intubated from the first dose, it’s simply not worth the risk for me. I am healthy, young, and already had Covid before my first dose. Despite all of this, my hospital denied my medical exemption and fired me two weeks ago. This whole situation stinks, but I’m moving forward so.... I would like to start travel nursing, but I’m not sure if there are positions available for unvaccinated nurses. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

UPDATE: I sent my application to UAMS in January of 2018. On March 21st, I received an invitation to interview. My interview is scheduled for March 28th. If accepted into the BSN program, my campus of choice will be the Hope campus. Good luck to any other applicants!

I sent my application in January, and as of March 1st I haven't had my interview.
