French woman declines Covid-19 vaccine for her sick father
Article lifted from this link https://newsinfo.inquirer.net/1389882/french-woman-declines-covid-19-vaccine-for-her-sick-father

L’HOPITAL, France — Fabienne Garbo’s father suffers from an illness similar to Alzheimer’s and was eligible for a Covid-19 shot as soon as France started vaccinating care home residents. But she has not signed the consent form.

Claude Garbo, 86, frequently fails to recognize his daughter and struggles to converse, reacting at times to German words after a life mostly spent in France’s eastern Lorraine region.

He is unable to convey if he wishes to be inoculated against a disease that has killed more than 22,000 care home residents in France — nearly a third of all deaths. So his daughter Fabienne has decided for him.

She told Reuters the development of coronavirus vaccines had been rushed by big pharmaceutical firms and might do more harm than good, with too many unanswered questions about potential side-effects and their efficacy against new variants.

“I prefer to be cautious and protect my father rather than give him a vaccine about which we still know little,” Garbo said. “He risks catching the virus but it would be like any other disease.”

Although France wants shots delivered faster than manufacturers and the state can supply them, the vaccine’s early rollout has been bogged down in red tape and onerous processes meant to reassure a dubious public.

Refusal rates in nursing homes are at about 10%, according to the FEHAP care home federation. But the inability to inoculate all residents risks delaying the lifting of tight restrictions on outside visits and social interactions between residents.

Citizens have to give their consent to a doctor before they are inoculated against the coronavirus. A family member or legal custodian must do so for those who cannot.

Fabienne Garbo said she had scant faith in a mainstream medical establishment that scaremongered the public and was too close to pharmaceutical companies.

“Are we not entering into a deep paranoia over this virus?” she asked.

The World Health Organization has stressed the importance of rigorous checks on the effectiveness and safety of vaccines.

Based on published vaccine trial data generated so far by Moderna, the BioNTech-Pfizer partnership and AstraZeneca, side effects have not been serious or long-lasting.

Supporters of the vaccine for nursing home residents say it not only shields some of the most vulnerable from becoming sickened by COVID-19, but will also allow them to be hugged by loved ones again and socially engage with others.

Families that refused Covid-19 shots for a relative with dementia typically did so because of their own prejudices, said Louis Matias, a representative of the FEHAP federation.

It raised questions about how those who were not vaccinated would be cared for in the months ahead, including whether they should be segregated and denied access to visitors when homes re-open, he said.

“That will be a problem. A problem of organization, and a problem for the conscience,” he said.

Doctors say the separation from family and a lack of physical contact is taking a toll on the elderly.

Garbo said she and her mother had often differed over vaccine safety after her mother fell ill following a flu jab. But on this occasion she had persuaded her mother it was right to refuse the vaccine.

Asked what her father would have done, Garbo replied: “He would listen to his doctor. I’ve not had the opportunity to ask him.”

Health workers from these hospitals will be given free vaccines this February

Philippine General Hospital in Manila 

Lung Center of the Philippines in Quezon City 

East Avenue Medical Center in Quezon City 

Dr. Jose Natalio Rodriguez Memorial Medical Center in Caloocan City

Please help monitor social media for any news regarding the vaccinations. We all want this to work. And we are also aware of the possible risks. First hand information is the best source of news. The 4 hospitals are just there. The health workers are just there. 110,000 doses will be administered.

Let's do a baseline now. Monitor the pre-vaccination state of health of the candidates (the master list of recipients will be released Feb 15) and let's count how many will get adverse side effects, mild side effects from the list.

I'm lucky to work for a company that cares for its employees. We will be given vaccines (if we choose to get vaccinated) for free. We also get to choose the vaccine that we want. And company will also shoulder vaccines for our dependents. 

Personally, I have chosen moderna and astra zeneca. Most of my colleagues have chosen these brands too. Almost no one chose sinovac.

54% VACCINES TRUST RATING released last Wednesday. This was up from 41%. Australia, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, The Netherlands, Norway, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom were included in the survey. The US had a separate poll which resulted 66% wanting the vaccine.

According to CNN, COVAX Facility will give the vaccines for free to poor countries, including the Philippines.

I have been vaccinated with the Pfizer BioNtech vaccine. Side effects varies to people, some are mild some are not, it ranges from pain in the injection site, body malaise, headache, fever and chills, joint pain. But it resolves 1 to 2 days depending on the person receiving the vaccine.
