This is the biggest concern of doctors on Covid vaccine
This common problem with vaccines could be a major roadblock.
The Covid vaccine is almost ready to start distribution in the United States and, while health experts are excited by the arrival of what could considerably change the pandemic course, they know that the deployment of the new vaccine will be Not without obstacles. Among all the potential complications, one of the greatest concerns of physicians is that people exaggerate and distort theSide effects of the vaccine, which could prevent people from getting it. Read about the opinion of an expert and for more warning words,You should not do that just after getting a Covid vaccine, expert warns.
F. Perry Wilson, MD, Associate Professor of Medicine at theYale School of Medicine, wrote an article for Vox documenting the different concerns of his colleagues and colleagues on the subjectVaccine rolks. The only problem that Wilson appointed "almost certain" to happen was the false declaration and the exaggeration of the side effects of the vaccine - and it is because it is already started.
"This happens already. The real concern is how much will it affect the large-scale vaccination effort," writes Wilson. "We need to get about 70% of the vaccinated population (or from COVID-19, which would be ethically wrong) for herd immunity to end the pandemic." If enough people are influenced not to be vaccinated, it could reach 70% a challenge.
Wilson says that the power of social media makes the challenge of fighting people who cite incorrect information, the most difficult. The struggle with vaccines is often the anecdotal cases that people continue to broadcast quickly and believe they are facts.
"We are going to vaccinate hundreds of millions of people. Someone will have a crisis after getting the vaccine. Someone will have a heart attack. Someone will enter a car accident," writes Wilson, noting that These anecdotal cases would not prove that the vaccine had something to do with what followed.
When you encounter anecdotal stories such as these when moving social media, Wilson wants you to remember "that the anecdote and proof is not the same thing." Strange coincidence should not replace rigorous laboratory test months.
Of course, this is not Wilson's only concern and other experts on the deployment of vaccines. Read it for the rest of their summit of worries about the vaccine and for more than where we then go,Dr. Faisci has just given a new chronology to return to normal post-vaccine.
1 People will get the lax on precautions.
The vaccine can give people a false sense of security, Wilson warns. Although it has a 95% efficiency, there are still 5 percent chance to get Covid.
"When a vaccine is effective at 95%, all who get it assume they are within 95%," he writes. "Nobody thinks they are within 5%, but 5 people out of 100 are. If these five people cease to engage in behaviors such as social distance and mask before the end of the pandemic, they can Still "Contract Covid. And for more information on vaccine limitations,That's why you will need a mask even after the vaccine, says Dr. Faisci
2 People will not receive both doses.
For the Covid vaccine to be fully effective, you must have two doses. Whether due to undesirable side effects or a mere oblivion, it is possible that people do not return for the second round, that doctors say can be problematic. Not only will the vaccine be made less powerful if you have only one shot, but it could also end up making you sick.
Yale immunologistAkiko Iwasaki Said Wilson: "It is conceivable that people who have only one stroke of the vaccine ... can become infected." And for more what happens if you do not go back for the second round,That's what happens if you only get a dose of the Covid vaccine.
3 The vaccine could exacerbate inequalities.
Wilson points out that there are about 80 million people in the United States without regular access to physician care, many of which have significant comorbidities that no one documents. These are mainly people of color and lower socio-economic status. "This group of people has already been considerably affected by the pandemic. Wilson is worried about saying that, because of access problems, they may not have the vaccination they need. And for more information up-to-date ,Sign up for our daily newsletter.
4 Doctors can begin to bend the truth.
Doctors tend to get caught in the treatment of the individual before them and may forget what is necessary for the company to be more good, Wilson says. He predicts that when we arrive atSecond phase of the deployment of vaccine, which is that people with pre-existing conditions can be vaccinated, doctors could stretch the truth to make their patients eligible.
"We want to keep our patients happy. It's not always the right thing to do," writes Wilson. "The biggest problem with doctors improving people at" high risk "is the inappropriate attribution of rare vaccine resources to those who would probably do it without that." And for more information on the current state of the pandemic in the United States,These states are blocked again in the middle of Covid.
