Many Unvaccinated First Responders Distrust Vaccine, Study Says
ABC News ^ | July 19, 2022 | Luke Barr

The leading cause of line of duty deaths amongst police was COVID-19 in 2021.

States with a large number of unvaccinated first responders “may face major workforce disruptions due to COVID-19 illness,” according to a study released Tuesday by researchers at the University of Miami.

First responders are more likely to contract COVID-19 than another population of individuals, but less likely to trust vaccines, the study says.

Last year, the leading cause of line of duty deaths amongst law enforcement was COVID-19, with 301 COVID deaths in 2021, according to the Office Down Memorial Page end of year report. This year is no different. The mid-year report from the group found over 95 COVID deaths in 2022. In fact, the group concluded the large increase in law enforcement deaths was entirely due to COVID-19 year over year.

The study looked at firefighters and police officers primarily in Arizona and Florida and found that out of the 1415 participants, 829 were fully vaccinated and 586 were not. The majority of the participants who took the survey were white men.

I would be willing to bet that of the 301 so called Covid deaths, 250 of them were jabbed. I wonder how many cops died in vehicle crashes or had been shot, were classified as Covid?.... Bad joke, but not impossible.

The media insists on calling them "first" responders. No, they're second responders. You are your own first responder.

The shots are totally useless against covid and horrible for any future disease. One massive government lie.

HOW CAN you trust an unapproved, experimental drug with no MSDS information included in the package and no clinical data released of its effectiveness or risks? What, me worry?

Yes, virgins distrust sex as well. They read about all those STDs and are paranoid about sex

Hmmm. I understand most first responders are young and under 70 years old. They were never in any epidemiologically significant danger of dying from c-19. The part of the article I read, seemed like the dumb quotes last summer like ‘everyone who is dying is unvaccinated’ - at that time 90% of the elderly were vaccinated.

Simple - Risk benefit analysis. Not propaganda feeding useful fools.

My Sil, son and daughter are first responders. Paramedic firemen and RN. All three refused the vax.

Don't even bother calling it a 'vaccine!' That's a lie about which they only belatedly were called on the carpet. Their answer--as if they are in charge of referents in the English language--was to pretend it was up to them to change the definition. They had only an evil, surreptitious reason to want the definition changed, but of course, fascistic on-line and paper dictionary corporations sycophantically lined up in obeisance.

It's a DNA-altering mRNA experimental death jab most batches of which contain deadly toxins, the data about Birx has admitted to altering, data and test results that Pfizer went to court to attempt to hide for 75+ years.

The corporate medical elite gleefully saw an announcement that their jab was "FDA approved" and used that lie to mandate the jab for millions, seeing that hundreds of thousands if not millions more would lose their job for not being willing to take it. Our military has been decimated and lost readiness by forcing essentially all its members to get that jab. In actuality, the supposed FDA-approved drug has nowhere been available. What has been giving has 99.999% the experimental versions. Some favored people were given saline, a placebo.

In other words, the liars have continued to lie, true to form.

But did the jab kill them or what really did? Comparing trust in the jab to fake statistic and drawing conclusions

And prostitutes do sexual acts for money. And they get lots of STDs.

Perhaps the solution lies somewhere in the middle.

Being a prostitute is not certainly mentally, emotionally or physically healthy.

I’m in AZ and there’s a fire station down the street. Used to hear sirens about every week or so. Now it’s 2-3 times a day.
