France suspends 3,000 unvaccinated health workers without pay:
Thousands of health workers across France have been suspended without pay for failing to get vaccinated against Covid-19 ahead of a deadline this week, Health Minister Olivier Veran said Thursday.
France's national public health agency estimated last week that roughly 12 percent of hospital staff and around six percent of doctors in private practices have yet to be vaccinated.
"Some 3,000 suspensions were notified yesterday to employees at health centres and clinics who have not yet been vaccinated," Veran told RTL radio.
He added that "several dozens" had turned in their resignations rather than sign up for the jabs.
That compares with 2.7 million health workers overall, Veran said, adding that "continued healthcare is assured."
"A large number of these suspensions are only temporary" and mainly concern support staff, with "very few nurses" among those told to stay home, he said.

Ah, but how many Americans die from "unloaded COVID-19" every year? That is the statistic I would love to hear!

Research it, and get back to us. If you do a good enough job, maybe the editors will publish it on the front page.
And, FYI, there is no such thing as an unloaded gun. Only idiots believe any gun to be safe. If Jesus Christ, Mohammed, and the Buddha present you with an unloaded, safe, firearm, you clear the weapon for yourself, because you don't believe any of those assholes.

Still wrong. NO gun is EVER unloaded, even if you unloaded it yourself. That's the first rule of gun safety. My dad told me he put a hole in his brother's wall with an unloaded rifle.
2: Never point a gun at anything you wouldn't want to shoot.
3: Never shoot anything you don't want to utterly destroy.
Jesus said "he who lives by the sword dies by the sword", and a gun is a modern sword. Statistics have proven him right, more than twice as many gun owners die from gunshots as non owners. I.e., owning a gun for personal protection is stupid. Owning one to hunt with is a completely different matter.
