Nursing home staff in New York must now sign a waiver if they REFUSE the vaccine, as it's revealed only half have got shots
Those living and working in New York's state nursing homes will be offered the COVID vaccine after it was revealed only 56 percent of staff in NYC have had it
It's not clear why only half of workers in the city have had the vaccine given how badly affected nursing homes were during the early stages of the pandemic
Some healthcare workers are refusing because they are 'afraid to take it'
Anyone refusing from now on will need to sign papers acknowledging opt out
