“Resourceless vaccine rule could have ‘disastrous’ impact on long-term care,” by Danielle Brown,McKnight’s LTC News

 

Quote:

“Long-term care providers fear the federal government’s interim final rule requiring COVID-19 vaccination for all staff at Medicare- and Medicaid-funded facilities could have dire workforce consequences due to its tight deadlines and lack of financial support.”

LTC Comment, Stephen A. Moses, President, Center for Long-Term Care Reform:

Politicians gain power by promising constituents something for nothing. Then they demand that the private sector cover their promises by doing something for nothing. In the end, TANSTAAFL reigns: “There ain’t so such thing as a free lunch.” Those same constituents, now taxpayers, foot the bill in the end.
