The woman, who has been identified by online sleuths as Lauren Balsamo, allegedly works for the Weill Cornell Graduate School of Medical Sciences. Now people are seeking online justice by notifying Weill Cornell Medicine to get her fired.

Goodbaum said she was “surprised” upon learning Balsamo works in the healthcare industry. “It kind of rubs salt into the wound,” she said. “Weill Cornell should have people that A.) know what the guidelines are, and B.) enforce it—lead by example.”

Goodbaum said she believes Balsamo should be fired, adding that she doesn’t think “she deserves to work in the healthcare industry.”

“She’s putting other people’s lives at risk,” Goodbaum said. “It’s (Weill Cornell’s) corporate social responsibility of trying to ensure that every single one of their employees knows how important these guidelines are, and how important it is to social distance. The fact that she thinks she’s above it, and she’s putting other people at risk—that doesn’t make any sense.”

our safety. If I knew one of the employees behaved like this, I would have consideration of whether using the facility because I could not have confidence that the employee would follow the rules to keep patients safe.

these people get fired all the time after videos like these surface. This is how they learn. The don’t respond to words or common sense but they will regret their actions after being fired.

splain this gap in employment history? Oh, you coughed in someone's face during the pandemic and you're on video doing so.

"We'll call as soon as we finish the rest of the interviews we have"

Who's got that "You're gonna lose your job" video?
