Vaccination rates are extremely poor among Nurses and other healthcare staff[1], poorer than the general population you seem to imply they despise for lack of vaccination.

This is false.

"Among practicing physicians, 96% have been vaccinated. The rate drops to <50% among nurses"

Arkansas, where this story is taking place, has only a 37% vaccination rate among the general population.
