Sheer bat crap crazy liberal lunacy!

California went from mandating vaccines to forcing COVID-positive health care employees to work

The California Department of Public Health issued new guidance allowing hospitals and health networks to force COVID-postive healthcare workers to continue working if they are asymptomatic.

"The department is providing temporary flexibility to help hospitals and emergency services providers respond to an unprecedented surge and staffing shortages. Hospitals have to exhaust all other options before resorting to this temporary tool. Facilities and providers using this tool, should have asymptomatic COVID-19 positive workers interact only with COVID-19 positive patients to the extent possible," the health department said in a statement.

The health department issued the guidance Saturday, and outlines that healthcare workers don’t have to isolate or test negative and can immediately return to work if they are asymptomatic. ............

If California and New York's Covid policies worked because they were based on science and not tyranny, then you would see people moving there instead of fleeing the states in droves. Instead, you have this.

California just reported an astonishing 308,820 new cases today, meaning cases are up 1,774% in only a few weeks since the statewide mask mandate was reinstated
I wonder if anyone will ask Gavin Newsom if he regrets pretending that mask and vaccine mandates would stop COVID
