Canadian Ronald McDonald house plans to throw out unvaccinated patients, family members
The organization that provides housing for sick kids said it will soon kick them to the curb but find them ‘alternative housing.’
Ronald McDonald House in Canada will soon be removing children with terminal illnesses and other diseases along with their family members if they have chosen not to get the COVID-19 vaccine. While the shots can be very safe and effective, some children, especially those in serious condition, can have a medically justifiable reason to not take them.
“In the recommendation of public health, the 14 member Board of Directors made the decision to mandate vaccinations for everyone working, visiting, or staying at RMH BC & Yukon to ensure we meet the highest standards of health and safety and protect the vulnerable population we serve,” a statement said.
“Our family services team here would work closely with the team of social workers at the hospital to find alternate accommodation for a family that would meet their needs for the duration of their stay in Vancouver,” the organization said.
Do you think this is the right decision? Do you think there are other ways to protect sick kids without punishing those who have chosen not to take the vaccine? Let us know below!
