Nurse wouldn't get a flu shot — so North Carolina hospital fired her, lawsuit says

A nurse in North Carolina is suing her former employer for discrimination after she said she was fired for failing to get a flu shot. Mandy McBride was a nurse at CarePartners Rehabilitation Hospital in Asheville for less than a year when she was terminated just before Christmas in 2016 for refusing a flu vaccine on medical and religious grounds, according to a complaint removed to federal court last week.
