I have to imagine that when it comes to heart issues, the list of things to avoid is longer than the list of things that are okay.
Well it seems some (key word) some surgeons are suggestion their patient hold off on the vaccine, till after any surgery.Quote:

Because of the chances of vomiting and choking on it due to the anesthesiaQuote:

Perhaps. The vaccine is a personal choice.Quote:

This area of AZ ,reminds me of CO 25-30 yrs ago. Where people prefer to be left alone, with any form of .gov minding their own business. Even a few friends, who lean a tad left of center and swallowed the whole shelter in place, mask, etc. Have opted to not get the vaccine, which surprised me.
The same people pushing this agenda are the some ones who SCREAM over any slight, due to a persons skin color, or sexual preference.
Will it be beneficial, in the long run, hopefully. Till then, to mandate one must show a vaccine card to do certain things, is ridiculous
As a follow up when it comes to mandates, Needing to have the vaccine prior to attending college .
I asked medical professionals 2 weeks ago, as well as today. Are you required to get the vaccine, to work? It was a solid NO, it's not required as well as unenforceable, and grounds for termination from work.
So i don't see how CO can do this without a few court challenges.
In reality the vaccine is
#1 a vaccine, not a cure
#2 it's not an APPROVED vaccine
#3 it's permitted under an EUA. Key work, AUTHORIZING, it's use.
The state cannot mandate a vaccine or treatment, as a requirement to attend school. For a vaccine that has not been Approved, by the FDA.
Will that change, over time, of course. Till then it interesting how some states are flexing their muscle, to mandate people do something
You don’t expect that approval will be politically accelerated?
Of course it will.Quote:

To date that number is still under 50%. Not to mention the people working there, who have opted out.
The small print on the vaccine literature says. One has 1 yr for recourse, if any issues arise, from the vaccine.
hell my toaster has a better warranty.
