Just read a great article in the Wall Street Journal titled:
MORE DOCTORS “FIRE” VACCINE REFUSERS (Families Who Reject Inoculations Told to
Find a New Physician; Contagion in Waiting Room Is a Fear).
Recently I went for my annual eye exam and then to look for
some new glasses and the lady helping me had a surgical mask on so of course, I
had to ask if she was a flu shot refuser and why.
She told me she took care of her body quite well and did not
want some foreign matter being injected into it. She said if she was a nurse
working with very sick people she might consider it but helping people select
glasses was not a reason to get a flu shot.
I asked her if she did not care if she gave me the flu and
she said she would never give me the flu because she never gets sick but Henry
Ford healthcare mandates all their employees get flu shots or face dismissal
and she thought that policy was very un-American.
I told her that before vaccines 48,000 people died of
Rubella annually and 29,000 of Small pox and 21,000 of Diphtheria but since
vaccines were invented…0 deaths.
I said vaccines are not “theoretical” medications, they
really work and have years of proof behind them but I could see that I was not
going to convince this lady but I would urge Henry Ford Healthcare to demand
not only surgical masks but also a new set of surgical gloves between seeing
customers since they could pick their nose under that mask and still infect me.
