To vaccinate or not to vaccinate? That is the question.

I agree about letting time pass. I have been hearing a lot about severe adverse side effects from the vaccine, even in young people. I’m 75, am a cancer survivor (2001), liver transplant recipient (2018), have Stage 3 CKD, and am now dealing with severe aortic stenosis. Do I take the risk of taking this experimental vaccine? Right now I’m in wait and see mode, and taking reasonable precautions to avoid exposure as I do every flu season. I believe everyone has to make their own decision based on the best information available. For me, that’s taking a cautious approach.

Well I received my first shot yesterday. I weighed the pros and cons and the pros made more sense for me. Like I was previously advised by a lung cancer survivor....if I do not get the vaccine and get Covid I probably would not survive with two lobes missing. If I do get it the vaccine I will have a fighting chance. And it is better for everyone else as well.
