A total of 117 employees filed a joint lawsuit against Houston Methodist Hospital, alleging top brass in the medical facility planned on firing unvaccinated staff by the first week of June if they refused a shot.

Jared Woodfill, a conservative Texas attorney, filed the litigation on Friday in state court, according to a complaint obtained by the Washington Examiner. He alleged the policy is in violation of the Nuremberg Code ethics standard, a provision established after World War II that strictly forbids human testing without consent.
