The host expresses an intent to receive the COVID-19 vaccine eventually.

“i'm a pro i'm gonna probably get the vaccine you know what i mean”

Public health agencies must advocate for vaccines because they are essential for preventing serious, life-threatening diseases that are not harmless.

“it's not a harmless disease. And so I think really doing more advocacy work around what are these diseases like and that they're preventable and then calling out misinformation I think is really important.”

The policy of mandating COVID-19 vaccines for young people is not supported by current data on risks and benefits.

“when you're mandating kids be double vaccinated and boosted quarantine for 10 days in their room getting door dash if they test positive well why who exactly are they harming their own risk is low their professors are vaccinated and can wear masks so it's kind of like at this point what are we reall”

The physician believes that medical interventions like vaccination should not be forced upon people, especially when the risks and benefits are not clearly explained.

“There is no medical therapy or intervention on planet earth in the history of the world that has been completely without risk. And if you don't have a clear explanation of what the risk is, you have no you have no business forcing people to accept it.”
