Hospital employees fired for refusing flu shots

Six nurses and other employees at a hospital in Indiana are out of jobs after refusing the flu shot.

The parent company of Goshen Hospital had made the vaccine mandatory, but hospice nurse Sue Schrock was among a handful of employees who filed appeals asking not to get the shot for religious reasons, South Bend TV station WSBT reported.

"I just feel like it's a toxin that I don't want in my body," she told the station. "There are side effects with that. There are no guarantees that it's even going to protect you."

I've never had a flu shot in my life and would refuse to take one no matter what the consequences.
