In the practice I see a great number of patients who fall on completely opposite ends of the spectrum regarding whether or not to get the new vaccines for Covid 19. However, one idea everyone has in common is they are ready to be done with Covid and the pandemic. The idea of not getting vaccinated for Covid 19 seems to stem from an inherent skepticism regarding the speedy roll out of the vaccines. People are hesitant of the safety of something that seems to be rushed. In this episode of the Peak Performance Podcast I discuss some ideas regarding how this vaccine works compared to other vaccines and answer the question of whether we should get vaccinated.
