Majority of Physicians Decline COVID Shots, According To Survey
AAPS ^ | 06/16/21

Posted on 06/19/2021 6:22:55 AM PDT by Enlightened1

Of the 700 physicians responding to an internet survey by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS), nearly 60 percent said they were not “fully vaccinated” against COVID.

This contrasts with the claim by the American Medical Association that 96 percent of practicing physicians are fully vaccinated. This was based on 300 respondents.

Neither survey represents a random sample of all American physicians, but the AAPS survey shows that physician support for the mass injection campaign is far from unanimous.

“It is wrong to call a person who declines a shot an ‘anti-vaxxer,’” states AAPS executive director Jane Orient, M.D. “Virtually no physicians are ‘anti-antibiotics’ or ‘anti-surgery,’ whereas all are opposed to treatments that they think are unnecessary, more likely to harm than to benefit an individual patient, or inadequately tested.”

The AAPS survey also showed that 54 percent of physician respondents were aware of patients suffering a “significant adverse reaction.” Of the unvaccinated physicians, 80 percent said “I believe risk of shots exceeds risk of disease,” and 30% said “I already had COVID.”

Other reasons for declining the shot included unknown long-term effects, use of aborted fetal tissue, “it’s experimental,” availability of effective early treatment, and reports of deaths and blood clots.

Of 560 practicing physicians, 56 percent said they offered early treatment  for COVID.

Nonphysicians were also invited to participate in the survey. Of some 5,300 total participants, 2,548 volunteered comments about associated adverse effects of which they were aware. These included death, amputation, paralysis, stillbirth, menstrual irregularities, blindness, seizures, and heart issues.

“Causality is not proven. However, many of these episodes might have resulted in a huge product liability or malpractice award if they had occurred after a new drug,” stated Dr. Orient. “Purveyors of these COVID products are protected against lawsuits.”            

The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons has represented physicians in all specialties since 1943. Its motto is omnia pro aegroto, everything for the patient.

If the following (from another FR thread) is true insurance company was denying life insurance claim due to deceased had taken “experimental drugs” along with Insurance companies not paying claims for medical care for shot complications. Expect shot compliance to all but come to a screeching halt.

—> Amputation is an adverse reaction?

Amputation means the shot is working.

This is positive unless you’re an anti-vaxx tard!/s

Note here…doctors are marinated in liberal ideology during eight years of college and conditioned to obey administrations that are surely among the most politically correct.

Yet, 60 percent choose not to go along to get along where their health is at stake.

Very interesting.

“Also ask yourself why is there such a push for an experimental vaccine for a virus that has a 99% survival rate.”
I have been asking the pro-vaxx people here that very question for months. All I get is crickets.
BTW, I have several doctor and healthcare friends, none of them have taken the jab.

They surveyed their membership, sample bias.

“Clearly you do not understand what is science. Ever hear of the scientific method?”

Sure I have. Can you show what part of the vaccine approvals have not gone through the full rigors of the scientific method?

I’m happy to explain it. A 99% survival rate means a 1% death rate. That is 3.3 million dead Americans if everyone gets it.

That’s worth everyone getting vaccinated.

I believe that I had it in January of last year, I had all of the classic symptoms, felt like crap for about three days and fully recovered. I’ll keep my my 99.4% odds, thanks.

...why is there such a push for an experimental vaccine for a virus that has a 99% survival rate.
_____________________________________

Also ask why since the inoculation neither prevents contracting the disease nor prevents transmission.

Why the push to inoculate those who are either immune or recovered?

Why the emphasis on antibodies rather than cellular immunity?

I asked a series of similar questions of one of resident FR docs a week or so ago. Many FReepers praised the questions as thoughtful.

The doc did not respond, even though he was active on other threads, including intemperate posts that were removed.

Well, well, well.

Btw....The American Medical Association is a leftist, Big Pharma owned group. I trust them as much as I trust the CDC/FDA.

I am pretty sure anybody that has worked a public type job has been exposed repeatedly. Especially if they wear those masks that do nothing for covid

I know a lot of physicians. I do not know if any that are not vaccinated

“57% of doctors surveyed recommend Winston cigarettes.
Well, it’s a survey so you gotta believe it. 🤣”

Here you go Mr. Rocket Scientest. How about facts and not a survey.

Believe this report from CDC VAERS.

______________________________

There is no way to verify the stats coming from the government.

The agencies responsible for the stats are already shown to be compromised and the stats themselves are under serious question.

The people providing the stats also 1) decline early or prophylactic treatment. 2) Send patients home under orders to not return to the hospital until they are in respiratory distress, at which time they are put on a ventilator that compromises already fragile lungs. 3) Insist on treating this condition as primarily a pulmonary disease after evidence mounts and is confirmed that it is primarily vascular.

These same people are not only profiting from the situation, they actually are on video and audio presenting power points about the potential profit available.

The inventor of mRNA technology is a practicing physician with long COVID who got the inoculation & is also a consultant to FDA and DOD, among other agencies. He provided information on spike protein toxicity to the government. This information was declined/ignored. The inoculation did not affect his post recovery symptoms.

Who can believe their numbers?
