Instead of offering prayer for T-Pain’s beloved matriarch, some of his followers debated whether or not unvaccinated nurses should have jobs.
So sorry this nurse didn’t do what’s necessary to protect her patients &!het vaccinated. @NCSBN It’s time to start taking the license of nurses who refuse to be vaccinated! #MandatoryVaccines #WearAMask

This is why people working with the elderly should also be vaccinated. (Nursing Homes especially)

Wow. I’m so sorry. Y’all are in my prayers 🙏🏾 People just keep refusing to get vaccinated.

The singer never confirmed the healthcare worker’s vaccination status, so the debate was a moot point. And COVID-19 is still transmittable with the vaccine. Other Twitter users sounded off about the weird flex.
So sorry this happened.. but how do you know she got it from her nurse ? Hospitals don’t release that info it’s against hippa. Also the vaccine does not prevent from getting it or passing it .

Prayers for granny but idk what “ just help us end this shit pls” means necessarily. Wearing a mask? Washing hands? Because being vaccinated doesn’t stop you from getting it spreading it. So chances are it was inevitable.

I got covid from a vaxxxinated family member…we can eat healthy, exercise and pray. But this vaxxx won’t eradicate this. Just like it hasn’t eradicated the flu.

As a nurse I am so confused by this post…what are you implying?? If the nurse was or was not vaccinated she can still get Covid 🤷🏾♀️

As the debate whether or not vaccinations should be mandated, we pray for T-Pain’s grandmother’s speedy recovery.
