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.

The AAPS is for physicians who do not believe in modern medical science. That 60% of even their membership has taken two doses of the vaccine is a good sign.

So you have a source to back up your claim or is this just your noob opinion you are trying to foist off on us as fact?

And I’m not going to welcome you to FR. DU trolls can be amusing but are really not very welcome.

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

The long term, as in years, safety trials.

Or have you discovered time travel and can go into the future and come back and “assure” us that they are safe?

As if anyone in their right minds would accept as fact an unverifiable claim by someone who claims to time travel or predict the future.

They sent the surveys to known practicing Physicians...

Where did you read that? The first question on the survey asks if the respondent is even in the medical field.

This is the quote I was responding to from OP:

“Yes. I’m sure you would choose the AMA with your warped politically correct point of view. Just deny the results you don’t like. That’s the way to do it.”

My response was entirely appropriate.

“They sent the surveys to known practicing Physicians, and you can even see what the Physicians said on post number #1. “

ROTFLMAO!

And specifically, the nano particles of lipd/fat composition, which is used to transport the mRNA into the cells, has never been used before in human trials so long term health effects are not know for these either.

There’s a lot being covered up with these so-called vaccines.

And a lot they CANNOT know but still make confident assertions about.

And 4 out of 5 recommended Dentyne to get rid of the tobacco breath.

I’d go with the AMA data

Didn't the AMA reject Hydroxychloroquine as an early treatment while President Trump was in office, and then reverse themselves once he lost the election?

AMA survey pool is far, far larger than the other.

Lately, I'm afraid that the AMA is going the way of the ABA. They make their designations based on the politics of the decision, like the ABA not giving "well qualified" designations to Republican judicial picks.

Gee, I no longer am able to determine if your defending your weak sister, or defending Qtards.

Of course you will...because you can’t answer my question, so you continue with your leftist name calling distraction.

We’ve got your number, Mariner.

You’re on the same side as your guy FRAUDci, CDC, and all of the gov’t propaganda.

Which gov’t division did you work for?

“We’ve got your number, Mariner.”

Am I on the super secret list of Qtard enemies?

Gee, I hope so. I hope they’ll keep me there.

You’re the keeper of the list, right?
