Vaccine questions

Co-host Dr. Allemann speaks with Sarah Davis, a local midwife who has a Masters degree in public health.
Dr. Allemann and Sarah Davis address two questions from listeners:
1. What can we do after vaccination with other vaccinated people?  Can we be inside without masks?  How do we think about the other people in our bubbles who aren’t vaccinated?
2. Do we change the way we think about receiving a vaccine if we have had COVID 19?  Are there increased risks to the vaccine?  Are the benefits different?  What if we had asymptomatic disease?

They also address many frequently asked questions, such as: is the vaccine free?  Do I have to have insurance?  How do I know if it’s my turn? What if I am breastfeeding?  What if I am pregnant? How do I protect my children who are too young to get the vaccine? What if I have a health condition that affects my immune system?  Is the vaccine safe and effective for me? How can I assess how much my condition might affect my response to the vaccine?

In addition, they discuss the J/J vaccine, the AstraZenica vaccine and Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis.
