I tried to get his idea of when he would be comfortable with the research for a vaccine to trust the NNT NNH and Fatality rate %’s enough to get the vaccine himself. He answered all the questions like a politician running for office using his medical terminology to go right over most peoples heads. I’m not oblivious to what he’s saying. The most we could ever get out of him is that this fall would be too early. You would think a pharmacist would be happy to share there input on a timeline needed for a safe vaccine. Most pharmacists I work with have told me they wouldn’t want to see one rushed before next fall so I was wondering if he felt the same way. He can’t just answer in simple terms how he feels about the timeline?
Now he wants to berate people for the flu comparison. When I bring up some data that the comparison has a lot of talking points on he goes out of his way again to dodge the question. You don’t think some of these parents would like to know that the coronavirus is far less dangerous to their kids than the flu at this point? I’m hoping he’s at least reminding this to some of his anxiety driven parents in his area that probably use him for a good medical point reference
I truly appreciate his input to the conversation, but I get sick of seeing him berating everyone else that doesn’t agree with his opinion.

It’s amazing that all of these “doctors” have nothing but spare time to argue with random people on CP everyday.
