Conatus survival instincts. Next question? LOL

I had forgotten that word and its meaning. I do recall Spinoza in his Ethics had something to say about it.

I wholeheartedly support your freedom to choose not to see a first world doctor or hospital. It makes no difference to me.

Of course!

Because they know it’s a death sentence.

"each thing, as far as it lies in itself, strives to persevere in its being" -- Spinoza
The definition of "hero", to my way of thinking, has always been one who sets aside conatus at great risk to himself for the benefit of another. As the snowflake liberals go about redefining words for their personal benefit, we should make a list of all the greater meanings being lost to our progeny.

And the vast, vast majority of those Mayo employees chose to get vaccinated. To keep their job. Why do we ignore the incentive as if it isn't important?
To: SeekAndFind
The article says "Employees who suggested that their discomfort was with the use of fetal cells in the testing of vaccines were warned that medications such as aspirin, ivermectin, and hydroxychloroquine also had been tested with fetal cells."
Someone is attempting to mislead Mayo Clinic employees.
Hydroxychloroquine was approved for medical use in the United States in 1955. Aspirin has been used for more than 100 years. They were certainly not developed using fetal cells. As far as I've been able to determine, the safety and efficacy of Ivermectin was established using animal and bacterial studies in the 1970's and human testing in the early '80s. [1,2,3]

Yup. I'd like to see Biden dare to try to shut down the Mayo Clinic for not bending the knee to his unconstitutional diktat.

In US health care workers In general, vaccine refusal goes up as educational/professional level decreases.
Funny thing, the "vaccine" refusal rates also go way up as people get excessive education.
To: protoconservative
The 700 are looking at the chance to move to something without taxable income while still having a very good chance at a big check for not working.
What are you talking about here? UI? Only some of that is not taxed ($10M per year maybe), although I don't know if they've made that allowance for this year yet.
What big check? Severance? I doubt they'll get that if they were fired. UI? UI is only a portion of your previous wages, and is limited by every State. Texas is one of the more generous ones, and it maxes out at $521 a week, if you were making at least ~$50M a year. That's not a "big check". And several of the red States don't even allow you to pull UI if you were fired for "vaccine" refusal.
