    Valid Reasons To Not Get Vaccinated

    SmilingBluEyes replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    SmilingBluEyes replied to nursej22's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Valid Reasons To Not Get Vaccinated

    SmilingBluEyes replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Well that's just it, isn't it? Beds may be available, but staff are not. They are crumbling under a failing system being made much worse by a disease that now can be mitigated by vaccination. If...
