CDC Director: Loss of Unvaccinated Health Care Workers Is a ‘Challenge’

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky (pictured) said COVID-19 vaccine mandates for health care workers will likely create staff shortages around the United States, echoing the recent warnings of some hospital chief executives.

We have seen that these vaccine mandates get more people vaccinated,” Walensky said during a “Good Morning America” appearance on Sept. 27. “It absolutely creates a challenge. What I would say is [we need] to do some work … to meet them where they are, to understand where their hesitancy is so we can get them vaccinated and get them back to work.

During the interview, Walensky didn’t offer a definitive plan to address the potential shortfall of health care workers.

In New York, Gov. Kathy Hochul said in a Sept. 25 statement that she may direct medically trained members of the state’s National Guard to replace health care workers who resign or are terminated due to the state’s vaccine mandate. The governor also floated the idea of using out-of-state nurses, accredited workers from other countries, or tapping retired nurses who have been vaccinated to replace them.

The deadline for New York state’s health care workers to receive the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus vaccine was Sept. 27. According to the governor’s office, about 16 percent of the state’s medical workers haven’t received the vaccine.

Earlier this month, Lewis County Health System Chief Executive Gerald Cayer said the Lewis County General Hospital in Lowville, New York, won’t have the capacity to deliver babies in the near future after six employees at the firm’s maternity ward resigned instead of taking the vaccine.

If we can pause the service and now focus on recruiting nurses who are vaccinated, we will be able to reengage in delivering babies here in Lewis County,” Cayer said at a news conference on Sept. 10.

A federal judge on Sept. 14 temporarily suspended the statewide vaccination mandate for health care workers after a group filed a lawsuit against the state, arguing that their Constitutional rights were violated because religious exemptions weren’t allowed.

Last week, 10 individual state hospital security officers filed a lawsuit against Hochul, Health Commissioner Howard Zucker, and the New York State Health Department and are seeking the option of regular COVID-19 testing instead of being forced to receive the vaccine.

      Hi VOWG,
      The Peter Principle no longer applies. It is not abilities that determine advancement but political correctness. It happens in schools, and everything else connected to the government. This woman is an example of the Anti-Peter principle.

      Hi Very Old, Herb and PSI Readers,

      I did not know what the Peter Principle was so I looked it up. What I found was that it only exists unless a HIERARCHY—a system or organization in which people or groups are ranked one above the other according to status or authority—exists!!!

      Which still is a reason why so many people want to migrate to the USA. Because in the USA who you are does not matter. It is what you can do that matters.

      And in the present USA, competitive sports which have no JUDGES, still are a BIG DEAL where a hundredth of a second, or a fraction of an inch, still matter.

      Clearly, stadiums of a 100.000 unmarked spectators cannot be ignored when there are no observed significant increase of Covid cases.

      But these sports do have officials who do try to see and report the breaking of the Sport’s rules. Which sometimes, because these officials are human and cannot see everything perfectly, MISTAKES HAPPEN!!! BUT EVEN THOUGH PLAYERS AND COACHES GET VARY ANGRY IN THE HEAT OF THE CONTEST, AFTER THE WINNER HAS BEEN DETERMINED. MOST EVERYONE SHAKES HANDS BECAUSE THEY KNOW IT WAS ONLY A GAME IN WHICH THEY ALL HAD VOLUNTARILY PARTICIPATED!!!

      Have a good day, Jerry

    Hey CDC and FDA numbskulls…you ain’t seen nothing yet. In the next few years, you are going to lose well over half your organization to negative reactions due to the mRNA nano-particle poisons injections. Millions who have unwittingly trusted you, big pharma and Mengele fauci are going to come up against some monstrous health consequences.

    This is why you have never informed the public about the horrid animal trials where most of them died from ADE after getting the experimental mRNA injections, the very same thing that has been given to hundreds of millions of people. You, CDC, are complicit in the extreme harming and murder of humanity and will pay dearly for your corruption.

    In fact, way back in 1990, it was pfizer who got the first patent for mRNA substances and in over 30 years, they still never proved them to be safe for any animal or human use.
