Quotes:
“The older we get, the more we need protecting from diseases out here, and the less we can afford getting a disease and letting our body fight through it.” – Dr. Berry Pierre
“These are things that we can reduce risk—and not 100%, before any of my anti-vaxxers hop into my comments—but it does reduce the risk significantly enough that I would rather take my chance of dealing with the disease after I got vaccinated than dealing with the disease not being vaccinated. That’s like, I got to run into a burning building, [and] I’d rather have all of my firefighter equipment on before versus running into the burning building, get burnt, come back, and deal with all of the sequelae of being burnt in that burning building.” – Dr. Berry Pierre
“If you’re a kid and your parents did not want to vaccinate you because of misinformation or disinformation, I understand that you got the short-end on the stick on that one. But once you become an adult, it’s back on you…You can actually do blood tests to check for titers and everything. So, if you don’t remember or you don’t know if your parents did it, there’s blood tests that we can check to see what are the levels of these titers that should be in your body, letting us know you are immune to these things…So, go to your doctor [and] find that out.” – Dr. Berry Pierre
