When doctors were vaccinated against COVID-19 It is in the hope of everyone around the world that a vaccine produced by many companies will help prevent COVID-19.
On Monday (Dec.14) US time, which falls on Tuesday (Dec.15), the United States began vaccination against COVID-19. From Pfizer to medical personnel The pictures published on media and social media are inevitable from the vaccine workers. The author opens a Facebook page and finds status, a former friend who has been a doctor in the US for more than 20 years, posts pictures and shares the atmosphere of the COVID-19 vaccination. I saw that it was useful, so I asked my friend to publish it here.
Dr. Suphat Thammasit Boon, or Dr. Bee, is a respiratory and critical medicine physician at Southeast Louisiana Veterans Health Care System in New Orleans, Louisiana.
“The system is well prepared. The vaccine arrived at 10:30 in the morning, 3 PM, and it was distributed in the gym, laptops, brochures readily available. And then injected
Most doctors sign up to the queue, almost> 90% are not worried. What do you think should be injected
But healthcare workers in other fields like nurses The staff of respiratory therapists were more uncertain, respectively. He said that he didn’t want to be the first. In spite of the explanation that short term side effects, there should be enough data to wait for long term side effects.
What he may not know is that the Pfizer vaccine is not a lot. All over, I have to wait for production and distribute all over the world, waiting for the next round, it will be a long time to come back.
Another wave of phase 1A, this one (healthcare workers, long term care, nursing home) is probably Moderna vaccines, I don’t know if this will be enough.
If you wait until you enter phase 1B (65 and older with comorbidities, essential workers, and etc), it probably belongs to AstraZeneca-Oxford. This time, there were millions of people. There would be problems if the distribution system was messed up.
But accepting vaccines has a lot to do with races. Black people are scared of lab rats because they’ve been hit in American history (Tuskegee Study) and a little bit about politics. I’ll have to wait for Obama to get the vaccine on streaming live TV to convince people of color, I said “
The authors find out more about the Tuskegee Study taking place during 1932-1972, for a total of 40 years, the US Public Health Service funded studies on the implementation of natural syphilis in untreated people. They are 300 black Americans who are poor, uneducated. Is a source of distrust of the state
As for the vaccination of Doctor B. The author asks, Do I have to prepare anything in particular? “Actually, I haven’t prepared anything. The hospital has been preparing for a long time. Last week, he signed up for the injection who is interested. He then set the priority on the tier as suggested by the CDC as a guideline. We work in the ICU as a priority to get vaccinated, ”Dr. B. said so.
Try to read the comments in this status. The majority of Thai and US friends praised the encouragement, and it was clear that everyone was hopeful about the vaccine. A friend asked if the injection was “cool?” Because it had to be stored at -70 degrees Celsius. Doctor B replied that the vaccine was placed outside for a while before the injection.
During the chat, the doctor had been vaccinated for 8 hours and the symptoms were still fine, but 7 hours later I said Waking up in the morning with heavy arms raised, couldn’t hurt more than the flu shot, but it was tolerable.Some concerns were asked about side effects, doctors explained, but a small percentage of them could be. And most of them are no different from other vaccines. But according to the data, a second booster dose may have more frequent side effects than the first dose.
Given the US COVID-19 situation, many people may wonder, Why the world’s No. 1 superpower has the highest number of infections and deaths in the world with Doctor Bebop is elusive. Relating to historical beliefs about freedom Since crossing over from England, I wanted freedom. Therefore conservative groups are fearful and opposed to government coercion. Or the rules that they disagree with, and there is a kind of alternative, “it is better to die than to be forced”.
Religion and politicalism play a large part. More recently, people with anti-science thoughts Anti-elite There are quite a lot of opposition to the authorities, they believe Smarter people More educated Doing something must have a hidden agenda. Whether it is global warming Climate change And other matters
The doctor told me that social media and fake news were the catalyst for the worst. People who do not know about it must come to learn from these media that insist on false knowledge. Like falling in a whirlpool Dating and chatting with people who think the same are even more lost.
“It must be very difficult to understand. For people not in America Why the issue of wearing such a trivial mask Not painful Or have to sacrifice a lot We must argue and never quit. A lot of people still don’t wear masks, ”Dr. Bee concluded.
The information from Dr. B is another experience from Thai doctors in the United States that should be shared with each other. And the situation of COVID-19 Right now, the world is headed for vaccination. There is news that a vaccine to be produced next year from 13 leading companies has been pre-ordered by the richest countries. At least one in five of the world’s population will have to wait until 2022 at least to get the COVID vaccine.
