The vast majority of Americans have complied with vaccine mandates. For the vaccine holdouts, walking away from a job comes at a cost, one that's bigger for some than others.

Yeah, your tweet does not match your headline. Have you ever considered NOT framing a headline to justify white persecution delusions? Not platforming a tiny minority? No?

NOW DO A FOLLOW-UP WHERE THE ANNOYINGLY DEMONSTRATIVE ANTI-VAXXERS WHO QUIT THEIR JOBS QUIETLY GO AHEAD AND GET VACCINATED ANYWAY AND GET THEIR JOB BACK. I BET THE VAST MAJORITY OF ANTI-VAXXER JOB-QUITTING COPS FALL INTO THIS CATEGORY.

Think how stupid you have to be to deny a deadly virus is circulating in the world and then because you are so stubborn you quit a job and lose health benefits. That a double self-own! AND proof that Natural Selection is alive and well and will prevail!

Once again NPR expertly avoids the obvious: over 100 million Americans have had COVID-19 and recovered with acquired immunity, shown to be more robust and durable than vaccine generated immunity. This is the major reason for vaccine hesitancy.

Their choice. Their freedom to reject the vaccine trumps everyone else's freedom to stay healthy and alive...the hypocrisy is real!

Why are they fighting covid vaccine so much but not other vaccine requirements bc it's political and trump made it political, killing thousands.

This vaccine...has been so politicized .,..or should I say Covid has been ..and theefire, those who listen led to a particular leader ..are the only ones who won't t get it. Am I right in saying it is only Trumpers who won't t get it?

I say good riddance! After all 80-90% of the planet’s population is stupid and ignorant!🤪

WOW! Civil society is disintegrating before our eyes…

Good. Let them live off the 'entitlements' they rail against. Maybe they'll learn something.

When npr hates the poor

joe is talking war with china lots of fun

Every decision we make has some consequence, some good some bad. These selfish vax refuseniks have made their choice so deal w/consequences. Sad thing is if they get Covid they’ll prob use up precious med resources like using hosp beds, depriving others of badly needed med care.

Did you see the new FDA warning label for potential vaccine side effects? -May cause temporary/long term inflation, moderate to severe supply chain shortages, climate change, and increased migration.🤣

NO VACCINE OF ANY KIND COULD BE FORCED...UNTIL YOU CAN FORCE THE AIRLINES TO STOP SERVICE UNTIL THIS COVID IS OVER THEN DO NOT FORCE ANY VACCINE !!!

Actions have consequence? What a novel concept...that nearly everyone is taught as a child.

I’d like to see this discussion stop. It’s making people violent, it’s scaring kids & overall it’s hypocritical given all the medical violations we are put through already by the government and corporations.

So sick of these stories. I'm vaccinated, I don't give a sh*t about those who aren't! I will not read the article!

Hopefully NPR and other media outlets will review some of the comments in response to this report; or, spend time and money interviewing the 95% in the workplace that have been vaccinated

So, they don't qualify for unemployment if they quit, right? But then, I'm sure they won't apply, that would be accepting 'socialism'.

It’s not forced, you have the option of not getting vaccinated but don’t complain about the consequences of your decision.

Those who were against the lockdowns & used the economy for their selfishness are the same ones keeping the economy from fully recovering by using personal choice for that same selfishness🙄 You can't make this up🤦🏾‍♀️ It's pure idiocy!🤯 It really is!! Idiocracy

They will lose their health insurance too. Good luck with that. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Good. We need to protect the public health and the common good from a lethal virus that causes a painful death separated from family and loved ones. If some continue to resist vaccination, they should not be working in any public place.

Whatever the cost, they choose their paths. Are we not to take personal responsibility.

Focusing over and over on those who refuse makes it appear common. Your numbers indicate it is a rare event. Let’s treat it as such and identify it as a choice to leave a job rather than protect their co- workers and patients.

Say No to AntiVaxxers for any place or space in public. Your selfish self righteous beliefs could kill men, women & children. Any beliefs that are OK in killing others, is wrong. And one based on self entitlement is the worst.

Fine

Say no to vaccines and yes to the Republican pathological liars slaughterhouse? How do you converts a bunch of well educated deniers their lives are in danger? We can assume most of them have a drivers license and have to follow the rules there been told what to do Oops!

Antivaxxers, Americas future welfare/food stamp recipients. Just adding to an already growing problem. Oh well, the homeless have a reputation of being intellectually inferior, and these people just prove it.

You know...if covid came with spots or a deformity, some kind of outer sign, we wouldn't be having any of this.

Before you go to war about something...COUNT THE COST!

“Walking away from a job comes at a cost.” Or you could keep your job for by getting a free vaccine….

If they refuse to wear clothes to work, they will also get fired for ignoring employer requirements. Same thing. They choose to defy, they choose the consequences. GetVaccinatedNow

Say no to stupidity!

If they cannot comply at sime level to protect themselves, their families and others, then they can stay home and limit infection to their household.

LMAO you went with *that* headline instead of 'barely noticeable percentages of dumbfucks hate themselves and everyone around them'

Choosing to be a virus incubator while living in a global pandemic that has ended the lives of 5M+ should come with a high cost.

The constitution gives them the right to say no to the vaccine, but not to the consequences of that decision. For God’s sake, isn’t that what the right is always chanting, personal responsibility. Go ahead and stand by your values, just don’t bitch about the fallout.

If they would rather leave then get the shot then good. Go away and makes your job safer by subtraction.

Their choice…now face the consequences.

Millions of workers would rather get vaccinated.

How about fill all those positions with BIPOC, LGBTQ, and Disabled folks who have been left out of jobs in the past to create a more diverse workforce 💪🏼

The virus is obviously extremely deadly and kills young and old, healthy and unhealthy, equally. The vaccines have proven to be extremely effective at stopping the spread of covid and its variants A few more boosters over the next couple of years and we should be completely fine

I fully support their choice but don't expect many good opportunities going forward nor any unemployment.

The employers of unvaccinated people are accepting significant liability if their employees infect their customers.

Are we supposed to care? I certainly don’t. I am resentful that their nonsense holds the virus in place. I have zero sympathy.

Please stop running stories about these idiots. They’re the equivalent of luddites and if they want to be left behind, so be it. Who cares.

You didn’t say no to mandatory vaccines when you were younger… how do I know?…. You don’t have Polio or Rubella, do ya?…. & as to your rights? this is a public health emergency, it is a Pandemic (that means it affects the whole planet)… grow up & quit being so put upon 😐

Thats their choice. Isbt that the phrase they co opted, their body their choice? Well this is the consequence of that choice. Good luck finding any job that will take unvaccinated people and offer benefits. Not gonna happen

1% is a small price to defeat the pandemic. Get the shot or go get a new job.

Most of us took vaccines for school. I bet some of these people took vaccines for travel or mission trips. This is a stupid hold out that makes them feel like they have power/control over their lives. Probably because their rich bosses control too much of their life. Eat the rich

perhaps they will some day recant their conviction vis a vis the wrong causes.

Do these types of stories get more clicks? I often see left-leaning outlets publish stories attempting to demystify or even sympathize with pretty far right people. I don't see this as much in, say, the WSJ. What's the thinking here?

Cool. Find a new job for than lmao

Someone remind these people that vaccines are forced upon millions of school kids across America each August. Hmmm…..so science DOES know!!

I believe in the US CONSTITUTION.the Supreme Court has ruled several times that public health mandates override personal Liberty and vaccine mandates are constitutional. If you cannot obey the US CONSTITUTION maybe you’re in the wrong country.

Perpetuating a deadly pandemic to own the Libs.

They’ll get what they deserve

Ridiculous

Oh well, let them go home & pout about it. They aren’t responsible enough to get a vaccine, they aren’t responsible enough to work.

GET VACCINATED ALREADY!!!

True patriots sacrifice themselves for the betterment of their country and society. Anti-vaxers are no patriots.

Their body, their choice. Their job, their choice. Whether they quit or are fired for noncompliance, unemployment insurance is inappropriate.

There are consequences, although I think much of what we hear is bluffing behaviors and a belief somehow it won’t apply too them. Call the question and stick with it.

Bye! See ya! Don't want you teaching my child, making my food, or being my nurse if you aren't vaccinated. Enjoy your choice to quit.

Job openings

The cost of keeping your body healthy? That's priceless ADE COVID19 CovidVaccine

Cover the vaccinated living normal lives, please. The other 'news' sites can ambulance chase the cooks.

Why is vaccine in quotes on that protest sign?

They demand their Freedumb! OK. Fine.

They deserve exactly what they get.

What is it they like to say to POC when they interact with police? 'They should have complied!'

And nothing of value was lost. I'm tired of suffering for stupid people. Let them loose everything they have cause they won't get what amounts to a flu shot.

Vaccine mandates are making teachers who don't believe in science quit, nurses who don't believe in medicine resign, and police officers who don't believe in public safety retire. Good. 👍

It's a rather easy way to get rid of dumb employees

Is there a vaccine holdout job board ? I might be interested

Forced? No. People with religious/ other exemptions can test often. Other than that, why think you have the right to spread Covid, continue propagating new variants, putting others in danger? These are the same people that still want to blow their second hand smoke at everyone

🎻

Let them

stupid are the holdouts

Thousands of Americans would rather smoke crack too. What is the point of this?

Forced vaccines are about control, not public health. There is no such thing as being fully vaccinated since boosters will be required indefinitely.

Once again - is this the right focus in this story? Yes, some are willingly losing their jobs, but so many more people have chosen to get vaccinated. Isn’t the percentage of those who refuse and lose employment pretty low? Come on.

The world needs ditch-diggers

Bye!

No. The vast majority of American adults were fully vaccinated before mandates.

Maybe “Forced” should be in quotes. No one is being forced.

No fucking sympathy or time for these people.

Now is the time to apply for the job you’ve always wanted.
