Consider This When Making the Vaccine Decision

I have talked about taking or rejecting the vaccine based on a conscience issue; you may watch that video if you wish: https://bit.ly/3vXyjwo

In this video, I want to make a case for the considerations of the comorbidity problem. Comorbidity is one or more physical issues that can exacerbate a person with COVID. For example, a 60-year person with no comorbidity will have a better chance of overcoming COVID than a person of the same age with multiple comorbidities.

Why is the comorbidity question vital when thinking about taking the vaccine? Because it matters. Some people are at more risk than others. I struggle when someone asks me whether I have the vaccine because a person could decide based on how I made mine. But we are different people. I have no comorbidities.

It's never apples to apples, but always apples to oranges, and the perplexing them to me is how few folks talk about the comorbidity problem. There are several considerations to make the vax decision, e.g., conscience, mandates, natural immunity, health-risk issues, and comorbidity.

1. Older adults are more likely to get severely ill from COVID-19. More than 81% of COVID-19 deaths occur in people over age 65. The number of deaths among people over age 65 is 80 times higher than the number of deaths among people aged 18-29.
2. Cancer
3. Chronic kidney disease
4. Chronic liver disease
5. Chronic lung diseases
6. Dementia or other neurological conditions
7. Diabetes (type 1 or type 2)
8. Down syndrome
9. Heart conditions
10. HIV infection
11. Immunocompromised state (weakened immune system)
12. Overweight and obesity: In the United States, 36.5 percent of adults are obese. Another 32.5 percent of American adults are overweight. In all, more than two-thirds of adults in the United States are overweight or obese.
13. Pregnancy
14. Sickle cell disease or thalassemia
15. Smoking, current or former
16. Solid organ or blood stem cell transplant
17. Stroke or cerebrovascular disease, which affects blood flow to the brain
18. Substance use disorders
19. Tuberculosis

A person has control over some of these comorbidities, and I recommend that if you can change your health, that is your best course of action. If you do not eat healthily or workout weekly or have a vibrant spiritual life, please consider making those changes.
