Vivek Ramaswamy regrets taking the Covid vaccine. His wife, a surgeon, does not.

SPENCER, Iowa — Vivek Ramaswamy said he regrets taking the two doses of the Covid-19 vaccine he’s received. He also said at a recent campaign stop that he and his wife, surgeon Apoorva Ramaswamy, “disagree on things sometimes,” and that’s OK.

One of those things is their feelings about the Covid-19 vaccine, Apoorva Ramaswamy told NBC News in an interview.

Dr. Ramaswamy, who is a laryngologist at Ohio State University, said she has no regrets about taking the jabs to protect against Covid, putting her decision in terms of her responsibility to the patients she sees.

“For my young, healthy husband, that’s a different decision than for me when I am taking care of patients who are cancer survivors, and they trust me to be in their airway every day,” Ramaswamy said Sunday at the Clay County Fair. “It’s a very different discussion. And I think giving people that autonomy is the most important part.”

“I’m an airway surgeon,” she continued, adding, “At that time, I think I had to do what I had to do.”

In contrast, her husband said on the All-In podcast in July that he regrets receiving two doses of the vaccine. “Had I had the facts that I do now, as a young, thankfully healthy male, I would not have chosen to get vaccinated,” Vivek Ramaswamy said.

I dont regret taking 4 covud shots and a flu shot every year, a pnemonia shot, and the 2 shots for shingles.

No, he doesn’t. Taking the Clot Shot was considered politically expedient at the time.

They’re both young and healthy - they never had any need to vaccinate against COVID-19.

As a woman she might be okay with the vaxx if she is pre-menopausal. Estrogen’s cardio-protective effect is established science. As for the menfolk, I have seen a healthy 28 year old man go to the ER with chest pains after getting vaxxed. Oh, and he got Covid anyway.

Men have higher risks from the vaxx so if one of them had to be vaccinated I’m glad it’s her.

Wow, that’s a lot of shots. When I was in my late 20s I traveled as an internal auditor for a fortune 200 company back in the early 1980s. They gave us a bunch of shots depending on what part of the world we were going to.

I never thought the flu shots made sense because the flu isn’t that scary to me and my impression was that they don’t work - the people I know that get flu shots get the flu just as much as people who don’t.

Same with the Covid shots. People I knew got Covid with it without the vaccine and it was like a cold.

It’s a shame that it’s not a vaccine.

There is a saying: "Hindsight is 20/20".

I'm afraid the saying is being proven wrong quite often these days.

I don't blame people who thought the jabs worked or were safe before it was obvious that they did not work and were not safe. People can be fooled.

But to still think they were safe or effective? Our hindsight OUGHT to be 20/20.

Me also. 4 covid shots, pneumonia shot, yearly flu shot, smallpox shot at age 8, all have helped me stay alive and healthy at age 83.

Short 20 sec video of my 30 minute exercise 4 days every week.

My goal is to do similar video on my 100th birthday.

I don’t trust his wife’s judgment since she was willing to marry a man who is a bad bet to remain faithful.

Why? No one forced me to do anything, least of all you (although I wish you would try) 😀

Imagine how much better you would feel without the poison you gladly allowed to be injected into your body? My father got talked into the JAB and he was gone within 2 months. Good luck to you, Sir, but you are a prime example as to why the masses are enslaved, one way or another.
