Thread regarding Optum layoffs

Are you going to vaccinate?

How many people are going to bow down and vaccinate? I personally telecommute and find it ridiculous that UHC isn’t requiring telecommuters to vaccinate, but their red headed step child Optum is. They can have my job, I’m not doing it.

For the mandate whiners. Just get a job a Fox Ne… Ohhhh, they mandate. Well, then go to NewsMa…. Ohhhh they mandate too? But, but… The plpl on their shows tell their viewers to fight mandates? It’s called a sham people and you don’t even know your own news sources are playing you. Yesterday was a great day for those of us remaining and ready to help the fully vaccinated new staff into the company. Good luck finding a new job.

Please email to obtain information pertaining to a class action lawsuit if you are being discriminated against and having your right violated due to the vaccine mandate. There is a large group banding together to fight this injustice.

Anyone at OptumServe or working on federal accounts and being mandated should turn into The Healthy American today to learn about the exemption process specifically related to federal employees and contractors etc

Anyone else get the mandatory training email today?
Covid vaccination indoctrination will be assigned in learn source

Can they make up their minds ?
They said Telecommuters are exempt so why do we have to take the course ?
Anyone who hasn’t gotten the clot shot isn’t about to get it because of an online training course

If you choose not to get vaccinated, at least have the decency to put on masks when you interact with people in public. Otherwise consider yourself an intentional spreader who is potentially ki----g people who are not able to fight it. May I add, that person would be yourself. When that time comes, in the name of Freedom of choice, have the decency to not to use costly and precious ICU medical resources.

Heck yeah I’m getting vaccinated! Can’t wait until I’m eligible for a booster shot!

Ready to take my 8 year old the day vaccines are available for kids under 12.

So much death and suffering!
Vaccines save lives!
Vaccines save quality of life!

My 65 year old vaccinated neighbor got COVID last week and he was panting while laying in bed. Fully recovered this week. I’m certain he’d be in the ICU or dead without the vaccine.

Are you serious? "Think logically"??? How about you do that and do some serious fact checking before you blab some nonsense on this forum. Pfizer and Moderna CEO's ARE vaccinated with their own vaccines. Pfizer's CEO waited until it was his turn and received his second dose on 3/10/21, he posted it on his Twitter.

https://twitter.com/albertbourla/status/1369734954498818052?lang=en

And NO Sweden and Japan did not "call the whole thing off already". Where do you get your info? Sweden's over age 50 population is 95% vaccinated. Norway has vaccinated almost 73% of it's entire population with over 7.8 MILLION doses given. I guess it's easier to regurgitate trash then to figure cr-p out for yourself.
LAME

The Feds have exemptions for sincerely held religious belief (don’t confuse this with organized religion) or disability
And these exemptions are allowed for contractors with the Feds

Before you quit…..you might want to check out your employment options. Most healthcare companies are requiring vaccines for new employees and many employers in other sectors are too.

UHG is NOT accepting any exemptions. One of my teammates put in a religious exemption being a minister and was denied. My medical exemption was denied after I went got the second opinion UHG demandd. UHG then told me to pick one of three additional doctors to get a "third" opinion.

Really? Think that medical facts will change if I keep asking additional docotors?

I went to the "UHG" doctor and have three opinions, all agree, any of the vaccines will be deadly to me.

Fu-k them, I'm not quitting. They will have to fire me and I will sue. You can't do this to people and not accept medical exemptions from THREE DOCOTES, ONE OF THEM UHG'S DOCOTOR!

FU-K UHG!

So, let's be clear, Optum is NOT mandating that their telecommuters be vaccinated. They have asked all employees to fill out an HR survey indicating their status. Nurses with multiple state licensures are still obligated to maintain that licensure (as the company pays for it and it's needed for their role). IF, IF, one of the states that they are licensed in requires vaccination or exemption submission, then the nurse must comply as losing that license will impact their ability to perform the role they are in.

We are told in Optum that the mandate didn’t apply to telecommuters

There is no actual federal mandate
Just a press release from Joe

Religious exemption rights exists and they are constitutional rights that supersede any so called mandate.

Jacobson vs Massachusetts said that the Feds don’t control vaccine mandates that the states do. An attorney in Florida used this to win against Gainesville to remove their vaccine and mask mandates. Check out coffee and Covid

Optumcare is the clinical division of UHG. They employ thousands of Nurse Practitioners Nurses Medical Assistants Physicians Pharmacists to name a few healthcare workers. OSHA requires all HCW providing face to face care get vaccinated. Exemptions for Religius or Health matters MAY be considered and alternate positions MAY be offered IF available. The process is similar to special accomadations for ADA. Basically its get a jab or loose your job. Not sure if they terminate, furlough, lay off. Those that don't comply won't be employable in their profession unless a cash only business. Hope people post their experience if they dont comply.

Optum telecommuters do not have to vaccinate if they never have contact with other employees or clients or have to go into the office.

It's all a crock of shi#. They really don't care if you are vaccinated or not. They just want to jump through the minimum amount of hoops so they appease the government. All of the employees are replaceable.

This is for the person who commented about losers. Why don't you trust the science and double mask or better yet use a plastic to keep out all particles. My Dr. FL Good does not advise getting it.

I can't understand how if the vaccine works people would be worried about getting it from those that are not sheep. The spreaders are the ones that have the vaccine, if you follow the science not the witchcraft.

The ceo of Pfizer didn't get it nor is he requiring his employees to get it! Congress doesn't have to get it nor do Judges, the NBA and many many other elites. Sweden and Japan called the whole thing off already. Resignations galore: companies ceos government health officials, entire governments! Why are they pushing this jab so hard?? Does the government and big pharma really care about you that much? Think logically!

i don't understand how there can be a religious exemption for this since most of the leaders of the main religions are pro-vaccine. the major religions' holy books are too old to address vaccines... i mean without people skewing the meaning of passages to fit whatever they want. also, where is this fake news coming from now for these anti-vaxxers? trump's been vaccinated, fox news has their employees vaccinated, where's the conspiracy news being gathered from today?

I thought the webcast did a good job at presenting the data and reasons why employees are being required to vaccinate. Don't you read the news? This isn't the first employer requiring this - especially in healthcare. You're special and shouldn't have to vax while everyone else should so they don't catch it from you? Gees! entitled much?

OptumServe has Fed contracts so the employees are considered Fed contractors (not sure if it impacts all of OptumServe). So fulltime telecommuters that never travel or interact face-to-face must be mandated because that's the dictators orders
