That’s just covid - what about all the other diseases like polio, tb, pertussis, chicken pox…
Would you expect healthcare workers to be vaccinated against those ? Or should they wait to get the natural antibodies?
- op00to 5y agoPolio: no, across the world there are less than 100 cases a year. TB: we require teachers to take a TB test, why not health care? Pertussis: yes, that’s part of the TdAP vaccine and I was required to get that as an employee of a health system. Chicken pox: usually most people have antibodies for this either from vaccination or illness.
