Trying to find ways around this for my son but so far I am hitting a wall. It’s his career path that he’s set on. He’s had COVID a month or so ago but now he’s required to get the the shot. Makes zero sense.

Wait it out or find other opportunities. There has been such a labor shortage in my woke field that vax requirements have mostly gone out the window. I went from being top in my field, to zero career to now being able to get 2-3x my normal day rate and consistent work again.

It will come back around.

Are there alternative sites?  Is the clinical rotation a state requirement for certification, does the program require it or is it strongly encouraged?

Website says required. I’ve emailed the school to find out.

Clinical rotation is at a hospital.  All private hospitals will require the clot shot for employees.  Texas public hospitals should have a religious exemption, I expect.  If not, write the Governor's office.

Have you tried contacting the school asking them about it? Maybe they list it as a requirement but you can claim religious exemption? The only thing I can think of maybe being a real issue is the Peds ICU rotation. It’s been a while but I seem to remember them being the most stringent about students being up to date on all their vaccines.

Yes, the school itself doesn’t require it. It’s the clinical rotations that does.

Whenever I was getting my EMT-B, there was a huge vaccine requirement list. I had some of them. But I was too lazy to do the rest and nobody said anything to me. So I would say just ignore it and let the natural lack of organization by these mickey mouse EMT teaching orgs forget about you!

That may not work out in his favor.  At my facility, you don't get in the door until all the boxes are checked with supporting documentation (HIPAA, background check, drug test, vaccines, etc.).  Doesn't matter to us how much you have paid your school or how far along you are in your program.  If you don't meet the requirements you don't do your clinical rotations.

My daughter had to get vax for clinicals, and they were still so scared of covid (2021), they were lucky places took them.  Silly to force a vax that doesn’t prevent covid.  To my knowledge she did not take boosters, and won’t.

I'd like to see these so called leaders of medical institutions try to explain the logic and morality behind mandating an experimental drug that does not prevent infection, spread, nor illness. My guess is they would go into full angry NPC mode and start screeching about the evil anti-vaxxers without addressing any of them. At this point, I have no doubt that the majority of doctors worldwide would be down with all kinds of atrocities. We're already getting a new one with their mutilation of children.

The Germans had doctors run their human extermination campaign after all.

Had to do a little soap boxing.

This is the way.  I know a nurse that was absolutely against the vax and fought it for months but finally buckled when it looked like the national “catholic” hospital chain she worked for would not relent and was illegally refusing religious exemptions.

She finally took the shot against her will in fear for her job.

Now we have a fat lawsuit won by people who were denied religious exemptions and hospitals for the last 6+ months have been paying outrageous fees for nurses regardless of vax status to fill staffing holes.  

This whole ridiculous scam is slowly coming apart at the seams.  If he’s ok with a chance of permanent heart damage he can risk it but I wouldn’t.

My experience locally as a leader of the local movement to fight Covid restrictions is that most people just take it.

Unless you just happen to have a firebrand local attorney who lived for this kind of thing no local will take it for risk of alienating their country club pals.  The situation is further complicated by the lack of aggression most lawyers have for anything that will actually need to be argued vs negotiated.

Finding a lawyer to take the care at all will require at least a few grand up front that folks facing career loss may not be able to spend.

It’s mandated to even get into the course. I’m slowly convincing him to hold off this semester. Now I’m looking for online classes that I offered to pay for. The problem is the clinicals. He wants to do EMS/fire dept. I’m not sure if it’s mandated for fire dept or not. Nor for the fire dept training. Just don’t know at this point.

You're a good father.  Get all the peripheral training first.  Sooner or later it will be evident to everyone that the jabs are kill shots.  

We didn't have athletes from high school to pros dropping dead on the field with regularity until the clot shot.  We had SIDS but we didn't have SAD until the clot shot.  He should hold off and sooner or later they'll be begging people to go into EMT/paramedic and health services (MD, RN, tech) because of the die off or disablement of skilled people.

I know there are paramedic programs that front load the didactic content and push clinical rotations and ride alongs to the end.  TX and MA offer online versions.  I suspect there are similar EMT programs out there.  Will probably still need to have all the boxed checked before they let you start.  Too much of a pain to track people down for missing documentation once they have started.

The program I found said he can start the classes. Once he gets close to clinicals is where the fun starts again. Hoping by then they will no longer mandate it.

My niece got through OSU-OKC’s program with a religious exemption. I went through it several years back and told them no on the flu vaccine. Usually they won’t say much if you are already enrolled.

Our fire academy required the vax to start with the last batch of recruits. 17 of them got Covid and they had to go home for a week. Go figure.
