I've been to Mayo Clinic, and it was wonderful, especially compared to the regular health care system. They have a reputation to maintain, and whether there is a hard scientific basis for this or not, I can see it being in their best interest to be able to state to their customers (ie, very sick people) that "all Mayo Clinic employees have been fully vaccinated". People go to Mayo when they are very sick. It's not like the general population going to the grocery store. When you have a concentration of sick people in poor health, it makes complete sense to me to reduce their risk as much as possible, and vaccinated employees is part of that IMO. I don't know if they have a policy of patients requiring vaccination, but if they did, I think it would be a good thing for the same reason: you have two huge buildings (in the Rochester, MN location) that are full of sick, weakened, vulnerable people who need specialized help. The last thing they want or need is to be exposed to Covid while seeking treatment.
