I'm not anti-vaccine. My kids were both vaccinated with everything, but I would not take a Covid vaccine today, i have underlying health issues... I would want to see enough studies in a long-term period of what the ramifications are for the vaccine.

That's another common question that people have,' Well I want to wait a while and see how it goes. Well, we have waited a while and everything still looks great, the bottom line is the greatest risk is not getting the vaccine and becoming ill with Covid.

Another strategy is to find out what that person is interested in and what they have been missing since the pandemic began, are they missing being with relatives ? Are they missing events they used to attend ? Have that person understand that the quickest way for us all to get back to those things that we miss is for 70 % to 80 % of the population to be vaccinated.

To be clear, these vaccines will reduce death and severe illness. They have been rigorously evaluated, and if enough of us roll up our sleeves and get vaccinated, we can eventually reclaim normalcy.

Covid-19 cases are at record highs today, rather than attacking us and lobbing baseless charges at physicians, our leaders should be following the science and urging adherence to the public health steps we know work -- wearing a mask, washing hands and practicing physical distancing.

Since hospitals and doctors' offices are going to be very busy caring for Covid-19 patients, a flu vaccine can help decrease burdens on the health care system and make sure that those who need medical care are able to get it.
