For the unvaccinated for covid 19. A short question.

[Muskrat]

I got the chicken pox when I was 17. Missed my first week of college classes because of it. I have not had the shingles vaccine. While I know it is painful and many people get shingles…many do not. I also have not had a flu vaccine since 2014. Did the first rounds of covid vaccines….but the strain not being near so virulent it no longer scares me. People need to talk among themselves or to their dr’s about what is good for them as individuals.

As you say, but I don't believe my doctor's opinion is his own anymore, he's dictated to from above.
For example, my husband's cardiologist received a warning from Medicare. An excessive number of prescriptions had been issued. The cardiologist took him off his gout rx (prescribed by his endocrinologist). You can imagine the results.
Anyway, today doctors have rules to follow. Not guidelines. Rules
