Nurse who refused flu shot wins lawsuit against Hackettstown Regional Medical Center
05 Jun 2014 (NJ) A Warren County nurse was unfairly denied unemployment benefits after she was fired for refusing a [deadly, useless] flu shot without claiming a religious or medical exemption, a New Jersey appeals court ruled today. The three-judge panel wrote that the hospital’s policy of allowing religious or medical exemptions to the flu shot requirement “unconstitutionally discriminated against” plaintiff June Valent by rejecting her refusal to be vaccinated for secular reasons. The appellate judges concluded that the hospital violated Valent’s right to freedom of expression by endorsing the religious-based exemption while denying her secular choice.
