This is incorrect.
That's just what the media wants you to believe.

No, that's what the operating physician and the hospital administrator told us when I donated my kidney to my mother and was verified by every transplant patient on our floor.​

Care to put your foot in your mouth further?

Vaccinations Before and After Heart Transplant - Northwestern ...https://www.nm.org › media › patients-and-visitors

PDF from Northwestern Hospital telling soon to be heart transplant recipients what vaccines they'll need to have before the operation.

From February 2016.

And if it was 2016 guaranteed he'd take all those shots they required.

Not wanting to take the Covid vaccine is a political issue not a health issue for these alt right clowns. They won't take a vaccine at a doctor's word but will take Ivermectin based on Joe Rogen's recommendation.

Anecdotes won't get you far.
A doctor told my sister not to take the vax for example.
My boss at work hasn't taken the vaxx yet either because her doctor told her she can if she wants to but she has good antibodies.

Don't be an absolutist in life, it won't get you far.

Oh mannn....
1) It's not 100% a political issue but for some it is for some it's not and not everyone not taking the vaxx is a repub. You could also argue that libs taking the vaccine is also a political issue for them too.
2) I think you guys give more credence to Joe Rogan than the rest of the world.

I hear about Joe Rogan here more than anywhere else.

Same thing they said about Vioxx and all these other FDA approved drugs that ended up hurting and killing people. There's no way to really know but to wait and see.

not the same thing per-se.
it's either we get exposed to spike proteins or covid w/spike proteins.
i'm more concerned about the long term consequences from the latter than the former. :manny:

You clearly don't understand the odds. If his immune system will be offline and he gets Covid he's more than likely dead because he has zero protection without the vaccine. You want to take the chance he doesn't get Covid and proceed with the transplant?
You can't let that heart go to waste so they're not even going to play that game.
It's like shooting two people in the body and one has a vest on the other one doesn't and you're acting like they have the same chance of survival.
-Yes I'd take the chance & do the transplant without assuming he'd immediately catch Covid. I believe anyone that pays into the medical system deserves treatment regardless of their stance on vaccines.
-The vest shyt's not a good comparison since two wounds you can visibly see isn't the same as a hypothetical infection. I get your point & the logic you're using though.

-These comments are fukking stupid. There's no reason to assume he'll be dead in a week cause he's not vaxxed. Or that he's not otherwise reasonably healthy or some random patient with the vax will live for decades.
Yeah ur clearly smarter than the doctors refusing to give him the heart. Thank you random Coli poster for enlightening us :russ:

with two small children and one on the way, how long do you thing his kids could avoid eventually bringing covid home from school/daycare?

children have always been known to be germ magnets, and they're the perfect trojan horse for covid since it's not as severe for them. so many kids have already infected their entire household with this virus.
