Wife visited family physician today unrelated to covid. Doctor was telling her he regretted being vaccinated because he’d already had covid but was pressured in order to reopen his practice. He expressed concern that in the next few years we’re going to be learning more about the effects of the vaccines.
This is a modern suburban doctor. Hearing stuff like this is disconcerting.
I wonder what he’s seen or read that prompted him to say that. I’m curious. I work in a large hospital and it’s become kind of a hush-hush topic. I know a lot of nurses who haven’t gotten vax though many have. I try to keep an open mind and get facts. Plenty of scaremongering on both sides of the debate and it’s hard to keep facts straight.
Scary.
Thank goodness for honest docs, like your family doc.
I had a doctor tell us the same thing. He was pressured to get vaccinated. He said there is a lot we don’t know about COVID. But he is far more alarmed about how much we don’t know about the vaccines.
I was at my cardiologist earlier this week and the nurse asked if I’d been vaxxed. I told her no, because I’d already had COVID and I’d been keeping up on studies about natural immunity. She told me that I “would not believe how many patients” they’ve been getting with problems after getting vaccinated after having recovered from COVID. That is verification enough, along with study after study saying the same thing, that I will not be getting the shots. However, my husband, son, brother, several aunts, etc have all gotten them (but without having gotten the WuFlu first). Have to admit, I have a bit of worry about the long range effects, but so far so good.
Personally, I’m the kind of person who never takes new anything - antibiotics, shots, sweeteners, whatever. Takes at least a few years of no bad reports before I will trust it! And the harder they try to sell it, the longer I avoid it. Not saying I’m right, it’s just the way I’ve always been.
Yes, we’ll see what happens to future generations. Now, a push to vaccinate Haitians and Cubans- Why?
