Well, I hope the guy gets better and recovers. The odds are in his favor, with or without the vaccine.

The "news" is replete with stories recently (true or fake, I don't know) of people who have been vaccinated and still got the covid. Getting the vaccine does not stop the transmission of the virus. So how would getting the vaccine have changed this poor man's situation? He is having normal human regrets looking backwards in his rearview mirror.

Having said that, this story is "conveniently" secondhand from the man's brother instead of from the patient directly. It's also reported at PBS, spread by the Associated Press, both notorious Left-leaning sources with liberal agendas. The cynic in me sees this as just an anecdotal opportunity by the Left to dispel so-called misinformation about getting the vaccine or choosing not to.

It's entirely possible I may be in this man's shoes in the future, having contracted the covid without getting a vaccine, but his story will not change my mind about not getting the jab.

My health and medical care are too important to be determined by a story in the liberal media.

It is very believable that any non vaccinated person regrets it after being hospitalized.

I have not been vaccinated. Dont plan on it because no Dr will tell me its safe in my particular situation

Of course i will regret it if i am laying in a hospital bed with Covid.

But still not getting the vax yet. Just trying to avoid getting Covid at this point.

Yup. NPR gets the memo from Obama&co at 6:00 a.m. EST, then the party line gets filtered out to MSM to puke out for the next 24 hr. ‘news’ cycle. It’s obvious and pathetic, but that is where we are in America, folks. I spy on them as I wake up very early. I sure wish PDJT had defunded those scum at NPR/PBS.
