New York and California are among the states that have required vaccinations for healthcare workers. Nurse Katie Yarber also found a job after leaving Houston Methodist but only after going 12 weeks without a paycheck and depleting “a big chunk” of her savings. ADVERTISEMENTYarber, 35, said she would not get the vaccine because of her religious convictions, a stance that the hospital rejected. Carolyn Euart is one of about 175 workers dismissed last Monday after refusing vaccinations at Novant Health, a North Carolina hospital network. Bob Nevens, 47, Houston Methodist’s top risk manager for 10 years, also prefers to take his chances with COVID over a vaccine.
