US FDA approves first mRNA flu shot from Moderna

Just thought I would share this with all...

This made me cry when I read it,its so beautiful and true... We did undergo severe pressure to get this shot...

I never considered myself a "Hero" because I chose not to get vaccinated for Covid or the Flu. I've always been an independent thinker. And I never criticized anyone who chose to get vaccinated UNTIL they put me down, then I went to town on them (like my idiot nephew.) Respectful criticism is fine. Insults are not.
As a result, I missed out on those free tickets to baseball & football games. And no free Tacos, either. Damn!
Speaking of heroes, during Covid, Kaiser & a couple of other hospitals hung up big signs at the entrances - "Heroes Work Here."
I noticed those signs while I searched for those refrigerated meat trucks to store corpses of Covid victims in hospital parking lots, as reported.
The purpose (of course) was to reinforce the idea that Covid was so deadly, doctors & nurses were incredibly courageous to care for patients.
Also amusing: TV news showed doctors & nurses wearing Space Suits with Breathing Apparatus. But when I drove friends to three different hospitals for minor surgery, and my sister to a fourth hospital for a sprained ankle, none of the medical personnel were wearing any protective gear. Most were not even wearing masks.

At the beginning of Covid, the healthcare people--not JUST doctors and nurses--were incredibly brave an dedicated, as they didn't know how deadly Covid really was. Hospitals turned out to be the best environment for Covid transmission, so medical folks with co-morbidities were particularly at risk. Radiology and Respiratory personnel were exposed as much as were the nurses. Doctors are generally less exposed, as they don't spend as much time with the patients as (especially) the nurses, and, in the case of early Covid, the respiratory therapists who were manning and dealing with the respirators the doctors believed were keeping people alive.

Anyone who makes personal choices that fly in the face of public rage can be considered brave.
