Ambulance driver: doctors in Obluchye changed their minds to quit, but they will have to vaccinate against COVID-19 
Ambulance doctors in the city of Obluchye who changed their minds to quit due to refusal to be vaccinated against coronavirus, will still have to be vaccinated against COVID-19. This was told by the ambulance driver Ivan Krasnoslobodtsev, RIA Novosti reports.
According to Krasnoslobodtsev, the doctors managed to create a resonance and began to talk to them, and also offered to donate blood for antibodies. “We all had a hope that if the titer is high, we will not be vaccinated. However, the doctors told us that the presence of antibodies would not be a waiver for vaccination and by November 15, it will still be necessary to vaccinate, “he explained.
He noted that the situation, in fact, has not changed, since The chief physician will have to remove workers without vaccination from November 15. The driver added that on November 5, representatives of the administration of the Jewish Autonomous Region, the head physician of the ambulance station in Obluchye and the head of the ambulance department of the first St. Petersburg State Medical University met with the doctors. At the same time, “everyone remained unanimous, no final decision was made,” he stressed.
Krasnoslobodtsev clarified that the two paramedics did not withdraw their applications, because they still intend to quit for family reasons. Other ambulance employees who refuse to be vaccinated against coronavirus fear for their lives due to the side effects of the vaccine.
On November 4, in Obluchye, a team of 15-person ambulance station employees refused to be vaccinated against coronavirus and quit. Later, another 12 of their colleagues did the same. The Ministry of Health promised to find replacements for them, but on November 6 they changed their minds and began to withdraw their applications.
