I received this in my email today:

This was sent to me by a yoga student. Please read it with an open mind

At 5pm today any staff member at Stonybrook hospital who filled a religious exemption will be suspended if we don’t get the covid vaccine. We will be on leave until 10/12 when a federal judge hears the State’s case and makes a ruling. If the ruling is in favor of the mandate the staff will have 30 days starting 9/27 to comply and get vaccinated or be terminated.

Any staff who has not been vaccinated and did not request an exemption, depending on what union they are apart of will also be suspended for 1 month to comply. After 1 month they will also be terminated.

As much as this is terrible for the 1100 people at Stonybrook who are refusing the shot I actually feel bad for you the public.

It is you who will suffer. Many are going to unfortunately die from lack of staff. Our ER will cease to function. As will all the hospitals across NYS. Plus Nursing homes, home health aids, and psychiatric hospitals. They are are all going to experience the same.

Remember this if your family member dies from a heart attack, misses the window for TPA after a stroke, gets into a car accident, ect., it was the unelected ACTING governor who forced this. And it was the CEO’s of hospitals who implemented this. People like Dr Edward Sun of Stonybrook hospital who advocated for this. These are the people who will have your families blood on their hands.

May God bless you all. We are all in this fight together.

Please pass this on to all your contacts and social media accounts as a public service announcement.message brief, friendly, and to the point.

Stand up America for each other. Tyranny cannot be tolerated
