Study Finds 96% of Physicians Are Vaccinated for COVID-19

In a recent survey published by the American Medical Association, 96 percent of practicing physicians have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

Among all surveyed physicians, there was no significant difference in the various demographic groups including primary care versus specialties, region, gender, age, and race.

Some health systems have required COVID-19 vaccination for all employees amid efforts to end this pandemic as quickly as possible....

...This survey was offered to physicians between June 3 and June 8, 2021, through a WebMD platform.

Of the 301 participants, 150 were primary care specialties....

I have a relative who works at a government super lab in Oak Ridge. Most of the subcontractors have taken the jab and are full blown gestapo on forcing or intimidating their employees to take the jab. The brains, the Sheldon’s are not taking the jab, things that make you go hmmm...

[Radix]

I do not believe that crap for even a fraction of an instant.

If you’re posting things from the CDC, it may as well be CNN. I trust studies overseas more than our government. The CDC has an agenda. Israel says the vaccine is 39% effective. They are seeing a lot of vaccinated people in the hospital.

I am finding it goes about 60/40 for the jab among the doctors and nurses I have encountered. My doctor took it and then encouraged me to take it knowing I have had a devastating illness which is a side effect of the jab, transverse myelitis which destroyed my balance and leg strength when I was nineteen and after I had covid and recovered just fine.

After that discussion I lost a great deal of respect for his medical ability. I flat out rejected taking the jab at least for five years minimum. I will continue to use him for basic services sinus infections, checkups etc... but will insist on specialist for anything else. I have lost a great deal of respect for the medical community over covid, they are the typical group think profession at this point.

Thanks! Been taking zinc. Have Ivermectin but waiting to see if it gets worse before taking it. As of now it feels like (or just is) a bad cold / mild flu.

obvious sampling error.

the new doctors swear allegiance to the state,
not the Hippocratic Oath.

most have abdicated.

[mewzilla]

Since I imagine most of the country’s docs work for health systems now, I wouldn’t be surprised if most are vaccinated.

Any docs who refuse would likely lose their jobs and possibly their licenses to practice.

I have an autoimmune disorder that has been in remission, my neurologist told me under NO circumstances to take this vaccine he is in research at UCLA med center and he believes that this vaccine can reek havoc on some immune systems he has yet to know the reason why but it is NOT safe for everyone!! I have had 2 people close to me pass from this vaccine, one had COMPLETE liver failure 2 hours after his second shot and passed within 10 days!! The other wasn’t feeling well after second shot he went to bed, his wife woke up next to him in the morning he was deceased!! Both men very healthy in their 60’s!! Don’t know WHY this happens to some people BUT as my neurologist told me this vaccine can be like Russian roulette for some!! NO THANKS by the way my neurologist has NOT taken this vaccine!!!

Reinforce the narrative. Over and over again. The BS is so deep I’m getting my waders out of the closet.

Maybe the rest of practicing physicians think Healthline.com and WebMD are full of crap.

Found this article from someone who is clearly not a fan of the AMA:

Don’t Believe AMA’s Hype, Membership Still Declining
— Group focuses more on its own finances than physicians’ real concerns, says Kevin Campbell, MD
by Kevin Campbell MD June 19, 2019

The article focused on AMA membership, but it had a number of snippet gems...

This is what the AMA has to say about its membership numbers:

They write that membership has been growing steadily over the last 3 years but then cleverly bury the part about how revenue on membership has decreased every year (at least for the last five years) because the “new members” are actually mostly group practices, students, residents, fellows in training, retirees, and so called “sponsored memberships” which have much lower average membership rates. Retirees, students, and residents are a large proportion of this so-called growth — not practicing MDs.

According to publicly available records, it appears that the AMA has also spent more money each year on marketing efforts focused on member retention.

So let’s break it down further and take a closer look at the AMA’s membership numbers ... — there are 1,341,682 physicians/medical students/residents/Fellows in the U.S. today — there are 250,253 AMA members. According to the AMA’s own numbers, 22.5% of AMA members are students and 24.7% are residents (this number in 2016 was 235,000 or 1/6th of America’s physicians).

They are an organization that relies on government payments for its revenue — which line the pockets of its executives. Membership is declining and the Majority of U.S. physicians DO NOT believe that the AMA represents their interests — or the interests of their patients.

Let’s call a spade a spade — the AMA is not the association for the U.S. doctor — it’s a money-making machine from the few who lead the way for the AMA in Washington D.C.

Beyond the membership spin — What is it about the AMA that America’s Doctors really detest?

— The AMA touts itself as speaking for all of us — but rarely listens to any of us — they work to fill their own pockets with dollars from big pharma and government

— The AMA tends to have a narrow minded political view and works to stifle any dissenting opinions (in an effort to continue to align with the government agencies that line the pockets of AMA executives with taxpayer money)

Yeah, and 79.2835% of all Internet statistics are made up on the spot...

And my brother in law got COVID, spent 3 weeks on a vent, and is spending the rest of his life in a nursing home. Glad yours wasn’t like that.
_____________________________________________-
One morning I woke up with what felt like an orb in my chest burning. Right in the middle of my chest. I had a fever & it was difficult to breathe. I knew in my soul that I had to keep breathing. I forced myself to go outside and take deep breaths, and it hurt like h.e.l.l. I live alone, so I went to grocery store and to church with my nose dripping and my lungs burning and a dry cough. This was Feb 2020. The MD’s didn’t know what I had.
Looking back, I wish your B-I-L could have tried my breathing, taking nasal allergy spray, and gufiscon. I had never been that sick, since I had paratonitis 2006.

Wife took 10 days first time, about 3 days for me.
Got exposed two other times, basically reacted to it, and shrugged it off, including Delta.

I can’t speak to anyone else’s experience. If someone thinks that the vaccine is a better path for them, that’s great for them.

I just want people to stop trying to make ‘X had a bad experience’ into ‘We need to force everyone to get this untested jab!’

[Truthoverpower]

The vaccine industry is pure evil and fraudulent

The “immunization “ and “ antibodies “ bullcrap is just that

I wonder how many faked their shots and lied? If I knew where I could get a fake jab of saline I would do it.

you mean the same AMA whom Obamatard rolled out when he introduced obamacare on stage, and introduced the “dOCtors” from AMA..that AMA?

[max americana]

My GF works for one of the prestigious hosp. in L.A. They tried to force the “mandatory vax” crap on the nurses and union retaliated with a walk out in 24 hours. That shut them up and never did it again. And the medical staff know the vaccines do NOT work due to the many incoming patients who have vax cards and now newly infected..
