Attached from the BMJ. Reasonable trusted source I feel.
Where is the link from the BMJ ?
Because these workers will come into close contact with many people who may be particularly vulnerable to being exposed to them, should they be shedding virus. Vaccination may/will lower the chances of that.
Because they may/will be less vulnerable themselves, so might be more productive.
This is the whole point of the matter, its because of all this exposure that many feel they dont even need a vaccine, many workers have had covid , some multiple times , they have immune response, why then do they need a vaccine, that gives them no better protection ?
Point of information, I have had three appointments re-scheduled in the last two months, because the clinicians involved had, despite taking all precautions AFAIK, tested positive, they were being tested carefully and regularly. That's out of seven appointments in the last three months.
Youve inadvertantly answered your own question.
Or are you saying that all the clinicians who were supposed to be treating you , were those that chose not to be vaccinated ?
Do you not understand , that testing positive could just because theyve been exposed to covid, and not actually ill with it , or shedding ?
Or do you think that having 3+ jabs, erects a magic shield where covid doesnt even enter your body ?
What the NHS SHOULD be doing , is testing for antibodies and T cells across its staff, and certainly taking into consideration, those that have had covid.
But like a lot of things from this pandemic, a common sense approach doesnt seem to be very common.
TBH I have little sympathy for those in the system who won't engage, and particularly those outside it who encourage them. Which, I think, would also be a commonly held view by those on the inside as well.
Guess what ?
They dont NEED your 'sympathy' , they were brave enough during the early days , to do their jobs , not really knowing how deadly the disease was.
Yes they got a clap, but they got no pay rise though, but worked on regardless, and then they got illegally threatened with dismissal for their labour, and do you know what the 'commonly held view' is ?
Overwhelming support, from those who would have liked to refuse , but darent, because they have bills to pay and kids to support.
Dont try and create a mythical , 'them and us' division in the NHS over vaccination, it doesnt exist.
Neither primary vaccination nor natural immunity is generally stopping infections with the omicron variant, but research shows booster doses substantially increase protection. Yet, Republican Sen. Rand Paul claimed that a case of COVID-19 provides “an immunity better than the vaccine.”

Ooh look a fact check site , it must be true if it says 'fact check' ??
Does it actually say there , that ''Neither primary vaccination nor natural immunity is generally stopping infections with the omicron variant, but research shows booster doses substantially increase protection. Yet, Republican Sen. Rand Paul claimed that a case of COVID-19 provides “an immunity better than the vaccine.”
Yet fact checking the fact checker reveals.
Some people who have recovered from COVID-19 might not benefit from COVID-19 vaccination.

In fact, one study found that previous COVID-19 was associated with increased adverse events following vaccination with the Comirnaty BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine (Pfizer–BioNTech).

In addition, there are rare reports of serious adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination.

In Switzerland, residents who can prove they have recovered from a SARS-CoV-2 infection through a positive PCR or other test in the past 12 months are considered equally protected as those who have been fully vaccinated.

The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is now better controlled in settings with access to fast and reliable testing and highly effective vaccination rollouts. Several studies have found that people who recovered from COVID-19 and tested seropositive for anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies have low rates of SARS-CoV-2...
