My hospital has made a policy starting Monday that all patient care must be given while wearing a n95 mask no matter the patients risk status instead of surgical masks.
With that comes a new rule of zero facial hair allowed.

I think you mean anti forced/mandated Covid Vax people, anti-vax is a inaccurate label in many cases unless they were behaving this way pre covid.

As for that type of behavior...
That is not cool, misguided and uncalled for.
I guess some people are just assholes. On both extremes IMO. Leave all individuals alone unless they have directly come at you IRL. Direct your frustrations at the officials putting the policies in place, not the individuals.

I still 100% support those protesting Mandates, and Govt overreach.


Some really ugly behavior is occurring from the extremes of both sides. It isn't just a one way situation.
When your sign says that the vaccine is poison you're anti-vax not anti-mandate.

Religious exemptions for facial hair?

No. What the administration is claiming is that they always intended on using the highest level of masks (N95) but did not have an adequate supply before now.
They also recently made the flu vaccine mandatory on top of the already mandated Covid vaccine and took away our "Covid bank" which means now any missed time due to Covid illness, exposure, awaiting testing, ...
will come out of our sick/vacation days and if you don't have time saved up(like actually used vacation days to take a vacation) you could be disciplined or fired.

Haven't seen that myself, have you? Sounds like a news story more than a frequent occurrence.

I was more referring to vaccination status dividing families and workplaces, and the venom usually comes from the "vaxxed".
Yea it’s been happening up here at big hospitals in da big cities

No symptoms yet but they were both around my brother's wife on Monday. Brother started having symptoms on Tuesday so was likely contagious Monday and so was his wife if she was positive at the time. His wife hasn't tested yet because she doesn't have symptoms. She's also double vaxxed though.

Mom and stepdad are going to re-test because they might have it and it's just not active enough yet. Also the at-home tests are only 71% accurate for the asymptomatic.
wish them the best for me

Were you confused about the context?
No, just wanted to clarify.
I just hear the label "anti-vax" or "anti-vaxxer" used to describe people who are simply choosing to not get the Covid Vaccine specifically, or even those who are chasing not to get a booster/boosters.

I feel that label's definition has changed and is constantly changing.

As previously mentioned these people are specifically protesting use of the vaccine. That being said, true anti-vaxxers treating anti-vax like it's a word they don't want to be associated with is kind of hilarious.

I don't really know anything about her other than stuff posted here.

Like DEWs? Those indeed exist, there is video of them as military tech on battleships. Badass. Haven't seen on on a satellite yet, but I wouldn't be surprised.
I don't think they are owned by only one religious entity though, that sounds like some more divide and conquer.

Shit, I am old enough to remember some sort of space laser grid Reagan or somebody was talking about to shoot down the nukes that were gonna be coming from Russia. Not sure who was gonna own those lasers lol.
