Florida health director put on leave after slamming staff’s ‘pathetic’ vaccination rate

https://nypost.com/2022/01/19/florida-health-director-on-leave-after-blasting-staffs-low-vaccination-rate/

Quote

"I am sorry, but at this point in the absence of reasonable and real reasons, it is irresponsible [not] to be vaccinated,” Pino wrote in the message. "We have been at this for two years, we were the first to give vaccines to the masses, we have done more than 300,000 and we are not even at 50%, pathetic.”

Of 568 active Orange County department staffers, just 77 had been fully vaccinated, including booster shots, Pino wrote. That equates to a "super low” vaccination rate of 13.55%. Another 219 others had two doses of the treatment, while 34 employees had only received one dose, Pino said.

He forgot, in Florida, one is not allowed to speak the truth about the pandemic, or health care workers, or sanity.

If you are really concerned with ignoring the truth, you may want to begin with Director Pino.  He has apparently redefined "fully vaccinated," and failed to address the efficacy of the mRNA booster vs. the Omicron variant.

I'm sure you find DeSantis a capable and honest fellow, right?

Depends on how Garrison drew him in the cartoon.

Notice how the discussion is quickly shifted to personality from the facts. 

These people are not interested in the truth. They are at war the the truth. If the truth doesn't fit their ideological script, it must be obfuscated and those who speak it must be destroyed.

Were you talking about DeSantis or are you changing the subject?

Let's see what the wacko left wing mob on this thread has to say about this.

Republicans push for greater access to COVID therapeutics

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, introduces legislation to prohibit federal government from limiting state access to monoclonal antibody treatments.

Therapeutics should first go to the people who were smart enough to get vaccinated with the vaccine that totally works, so they wouldn't even really ever need them except when they do. Which is often enough that it's a problem. :lol:

Not answering the question, is an answer of a sort.

Not going to lie, I've been guilty of wearing a mask in the car.  Usually its if I leave one place and only have to go a few blocks away. 

 

It's not that I'm stupid, its that I'm lazy

Personally, I don't like the guy. Pretty sure a plastic surgeon is NOT who should be running this, but this is DeSantis' Florida.

I would love for you to deal with what was said. But no, the message and facts mean nothing. You attack the messenger.

The fact that a health official is placed on leave because he dared suggest that the vaccination rate of health care professionals in Florida is abysmal.

Could you talk about that maybe? For once? Or are we going to just post a cartoon and run away?

When we were in Florida and spending time at the NICU, one nurse claimed more than half of the staff wasn't vaccinated and wouldn't get it.  I'd believe her, but she also said that it's because people have been getting mRNA vaccines for 20 years and often drop dead within 5-10 so she's a Fn moron

I "dealt" with Director Pino getting his statistics muddled.  He can suggest what he wants, but as you have frequently pointed out - saying things publicly that irritates your bosses often has consequences.

You can fall on either side of the politics - but the hierarchy doesn't change.

I used to forget from time to time, especially after working all day with it on. It really bothers people though, I had a rather angry fellow scream at me from his car over the summer about it.

So he's lying about the vaccination rate? That's your position?

Not sure how you forget you had a mask on.  And I really doubt you had someone scream at you over it, that side of the aisle is more likely to point and laugh at you.

 

No no no, nothing about your post adds up at all

By "dealt with" you mean, you said "he's a liar" without offering up anything to back that up.

Keep putting words in my writings.  I'm off and I'm going to post a pic so you can pound your chest and say "I told you so."  I have work to do rather than spend time jousting with you Sir.

Wore a variety respirators daily for decades before Covid, depending on what i was working with that day. Full face, half face and self contained. I used to forget my mask was on all the time.

And I assume you have never been to South Jersey and met our local neckbeards. The breed exhibits an odd and explosive mix of redneck and Jersey shore "you lookin at me?", and can be quite aggressive for seemingly no reason.

In fairness to Paco, the residents of Deptford don't pronounce the p or t anyway, might as well take them out of the name.
