If you don't want to get the vaccine - don't get it. But to deny what almost every poster on here tells you is ignorant. There are doctors, nurses, etc that are posting in this thread about the rise in cases that we are all seeing. Yet, some on here still want to say that we are somehow coerced to spew the party line or that there is a financial incentive involved. If it were financially motivated - encouraging vaccinations would be counter-productive wouldn't it ? What is the rationale for those of us in the medical field telling you guys about the resurgence or advising those with risk to get vaccinated ? Rather than listen to us that are on the front lines and that are telling you what we are seeing - they will listen to " a friend that knows a doctor" or "nurse". Maybe natural selection is at play and the virus will rid some of this ignorance from the gene pool. I'm sorry that is an inappropriate statement but it is so frustrating to see some of the BS and backward thinking. If you are over 50 or if you have underlying diseases such as COPD/Diabetes/Heart Disease and especially Obesity - you should get the freakin' vaccine. You guys make fun of the female Hospitalist Physician that although she seemed like a bit of a drama queen - I believe her plea was heartfelt and I'm sure she was speaking the truth. I just hope and pray that none of you guys with your distrust find yourself in the same position that she describes.
Doc, a big point here is that there are known treatments for chinaflu, You know-ivermec, hydroxy & at least one more. I would much rather take my chances with these known items than to chance myself with an un-approved "vaccine". I don't believe this is backward thinking. More on the lines of common sense.
