Life expectancy in the United States fell by 1½ years in 2020, the largest annual decline in life expectancy since World War II. Now, one and a half years into the COVID-19 pandemic, with over 626,000 American lives lost, we have an abundance of safe, accessible COVID vaccines, and the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine just received full approval beyond emergency use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Summer 2021 was supposed to be a return to normalcy, a “hot vax” summer of connection and prosperity. Instead, we saw a fourth wave of the COVID-19 pandemic and the return of Center for Disease Control (CDC) mask mandates, largely due to the over 90-million eligible Americans who remain unvaccinated in the setting of the highly infectious Delta variant.
As medical professionals, we’ve seen the cost of refusing the vaccine firsthand: Care for serious illness caused by SARS-COV-2 is invasive and traumatizing at best, both for you and for your family. Worldwide, for adults, there is a 30-40 percent chance of dying from COVID if you require intensive care.
If you chose not to get the vaccine, it’s time for you to let your doctors know what ending well looks like for you. For some of you, COVID-19 will be the deadliest virus you will face in your life. If you are holding off on getting vaccinated, there is one important thing that you should consider doing: complete an advance directive—a document explaining how you want medical decisions about you to be made if you cannot speak for yourself.
Share the document with your loved ones. Have conversations about what matters most to you, consider what kinds of treatment you are willing to undergo for a chance to get better, and talk through your wishes in different scenarios for quality of life. …

Wow. Taking fear mongering to a whole new level.
The idea that anyone would make *any* plans based on a Newsweek article is stunning in its galactic stupidity.
I wouldn’t change a freaking dental appointment where 6 week old issues of Newsweek are the preferred reading material in the waiting room.
I’d take it if I could be like Wolverine…

The vax pushers basically have got the people they’re going to get. Get over it - we are not taking the clot shot!
Smart! We are planning too!
Skillfully written article, but it doesn’t fool me. The surge is caused by the delta variant. The vax doesn’t protect against the delta variant.
The article lies, and fails.
They have no shame. They are blaming everything on the unvaxxed. I predicted that approval would allow them to unleash their attack dogs against the unvaxxed. They have. It’s all on the unvaxxed. Not a word about the truth that the vax doesn’t protect against the delta variant, which is the dominant one.
Next we’ll be seeing undertakers posting giant billboards saying “Get vaccinated. We can wait.”
We’ve thought about that...well, a similar plan.
Something to think about...what if they attempt (especially blue states) to halt interstate travel, if you’ve not taken the jab?
I get that you’d avoid those state...but, what if they’re the shortest route to your next stop?
If there is an abundance of safe vaccines, why aren’t any of them being offered to the public?
Go read up on the two authors. My takeaway is they’re both medically trained professional attention whores.
I rebuke your fear-mongering in the name of Jesus! Now I feel so much better and I can get on with my life. These people are just totally nuts...Lex

Agree.
They’re trying to erase the control group (us!) to hide their hideous deed.
