With the temporary block of the CMS mandate for hospitals, my Healthcare System late last week put a hold on their mandate that was to start 12/6 after going to the trouble of getting everybody either proof of vaccination, or a religious/medical exemption.
I'm OK with the decision (I'm not a fan of the mandate) but given they had already gone to all the trouble to alienate those that would be alienated and set up testing for those that got an exemption, I could have seen a reasonable path to staying the course.
I guess we'll see where it goes. If there's another large surge, I suspect they'll implement it regardless of the court standing. Nearly every hospital system in Atlanta already has the mandate in place.
