Novant Health, a massive hospital system in North Carolina that has made the COVID-19 vaccine mandatory for its employees, suspended 375 employees across 15 hospitals and 800 clinics last week for not complying with the mandate. But over a five-day period, 200 employees agreed to get the vaccine, Megan Rivers, the hospital's director of media & influencer relations, said in a tweet. More than 99% of the hospital system's 35,000 employees are vaccinated, Rivers said.
The remaining 175 who were suspended last week have been fired, according to CBS affiliate WWAY.
