AARP Mississippi calls on all nursing homes to require COVID-19 vaccinations for staff and residents
America’s nursing-home industry has set a goal of having at least three-fourths of each facility’s staff-members vaccinated against “COVID-19”. But, “A-A-R-P’s” latest analysis finds that only eight-and-a-half-percent of Mississippi’s nursing-homes have met that goal. That’s why “A-A-R-P Mississippi’s” state-director, Kimberly L- Campbell, wants them to require all of their staff—and residents—to be vaccinated… “Throughout Mississippi, almost two-thousand residents and staff-members have died from ‘COVID-19’, at nursing-homes and other long-term-care facilities. This represents around 27-percent of the state’s ‘COVID-19’-related deaths—even though less than one-percent of the population lives in such facilities. As new variants emerge, nursing-homes can’t let preventable problems be repeated. The key is to increase vaccinations—and to do it now. We call on these facilities to require vaccinations, for both residents and staff; this includes providing vaccines to all newly admitted residents. The low levels of staff-vaccinations, in particular, create an unacceptable level of risk—since the disease spreads so easily, in these environments.” To learn more, visit “a-a-r-p”-dot-org-slash-“m-s”.
