Healthcare providers have a responsibility to practice the ethical principle of patient autonomy. We allow patients to make their own decisions regarding what treatments, medications, or other medical interventions, including vaccines, they do or do not want. We protect this as their constitutional and human right, regardless of our personal beliefs as their healthcare providers, and uphold the sacred duty to advocate for the protection of their rights.

But who protects our rights? Who’s going to advocate for us?

Making healthcare professionals choose between taking an experimental vaccine with mixed study results in terms of effectiveness and safety, and their career is a gross violation of our rights to medical autonomy and person liberty, as protected in the Constitution of the United States under the 9th amendment in the Bill of Rights. Healthcare providers have sacrificed at personal risk to work through the COVID-19 and as such have earned the right to choose for ourselves whether or not we will be vaccinated. We admonish our government and corporate leaders to continue to view us in this light.

We are not expendable. Hospitals all over the country are already struggling with unemployment and keeping businesses staffed. Our state alone will lose a large percentage of medical workers should they move forward with this or similar dictatorial mandates.

Please stand up against medical discrimination and continue to view your healthcare providers as heroes, regardless of their personal choices for individual medical care. If you have loved ones or friends that work in the medical field, this petition is for you too. Vaccinated or not! Stand with your fellow employees, coworkers, friends, family. 

WE THE PEOPLE must take a stand. This is so much bigger than a vaccine. We are calling upon you to protect your rights and those of others by championing the Constitution of the United States.

Ours is the responsibility to protect future generations from discrimination and tyranny.

Please join us by adding your name to this petition.
