An anti-vax nurse recorded herself as she was escorted out of a California hospital after being placed on unpaid leave for refusing to get vaccinated against COVID-19 due to 'sincerely held religious beliefs.'

'I don't know what kind of pandemic it is if they're firing nurses who are willing to work,' the Kaiser Permanente Hospital nurse says during the five-minute rant.

The viral video, originally shared in the platform rumble and reposted on Twitter by TV personality Gillian McKeith on Saturday, now has more than 5 million views. 

It is unclear what Kaiser Hospital in California the unidentified nurse worked at; the group operates dozens of hospitals in the U.S. 

'I am being escorted out of Kaiser Permanente Hospital because of my religious beliefs because I don't want to get the jab and, um, I asked all day for someone to explain to me why my sincerely held religious beliefs are not enough for Kaiser,' she begins the video.

A security guard and two other nurses can be seen walking behind the woman in the recording as she defends her decision based on religious beliefs, which she did not specify in the video. 

'And no one was able to do that for me. So now they're escorting me out because I wanted an answer and I'm not leaving without an answer. And I have some nurses here standing in solidarity with me and I appreciate that,' she adds.

The woman then addresses the viewer and says that she is willing to sacrifice her job for her freedom to decline the vaccine.
