Public Shaming/Praise for Vaccine Decision?

[senona]

I did receive an email from Jim's nursing home, stating that soon they will be getting the vaccine and provided family members with literature to read and if we have any questions, to call them.

They also stated that regardless of our decision, it will not affect their stay or medical coverage.



After reading the info, and talking to my sister, a couple of friends, I think I will opt out at this time for Jim.



Reason being, it clearly states that it is not FDA approved, it is still in trial testing and it may or may not prevent covid.



And with Jim's cognitive issues & Parkinson's,  I do not want to make it worse by injecting him with what is basically, an experimental vaccine.


Only 20,000 people are in the study trial and not all have had the second injection according to the the info provided. 







Now my sister on the other hand, due to her work and her fear of being furloughed again, got her first shot yesterday. She thinks that with her being vaccinated, they will more than likely keep her on, especially if she volunteers to work with covid patients if need be.

Margie is more worried about the long term side effects, rather than right now. 

Only time will tell.





Fingers crossed, all will be okay for everyone taking it!! 
And that it works.
