Why vaccinate?

February 22, 2021

Where some of us may disagree, I am a firm believer of getting vaccinated. It’s scary to think that a third of Americans are hesitant or unlikely to get the vaccine. That might mean that we may not reach herd immunity for this virus to go away. Just as I am with my stance on gum disease, I believe in the prevention of the disease than for us to think that we should just “live” with this virus. I can go off on what the science and the studies says. However, there are a lot of scary symptoms that can last with COVID and also death can result. There are not many of us that have seen or experienced anything like or similar to this before. Imagine spreading COVID to someone who dies from it. Not something I would want to imagine!

We must remember that prevention is the key to living long healthy lives. This includes having good daily hygiene habits and maintaining a good diet, which includes limiting or even avoiding sugars and eating foods high in vitamins. Studies would show the benefits of living a cost effective, healthy lifestyle. This also includes getting vaccinated.
