These include: Chronic respiratory illnesses: Asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis. Cardiovascular conditions: Heart failure, coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathies, hypertension. Metabolic disorders: Diabetes (type 1 and type 2), obesity. Renal disease: Chronic kidney disease. Hepatic conditions: Chronic liver disease. Neurological disorders: Dementia, Parkinson's disease. Immunocompromised states: Individuals with weakened immune systems due to various conditions (e.g., cancer, organ transplantation, HIV) or medications. Other conditions: Sickle cell disease, substance use disorders, certain disabilities, mental health conditions (mood disorders, schizophrenia spectrum disorders). If you're NOT high risk, I would think that you and your PCP can talk about what's best. Just like the HPV vaccine or the flu vaccine - those are recommended for high risk groups, pregnant people, older people mostly, but not everyone gets one. Asthma is listed, Gutter. You can still get one. So what you're saying is that RFK is handling the COVID vaccine perfectly and leftists don't like it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, I am not saying that at all, just what the article said, and what a quick google search confirmed. I kind of figured Asthma would be on the list of "okay to vaccinate" and wanted to ease Gutter's fears that he wouldn't be able to get the vaccine. Also, they have removed healthy pregnant women and healthy children from that list, IIRC. Whether RFK is handling it "perfectly" and if leftists don't like it really isn't my place to say, I guess. I imagine there are people across the board who don't like it, and "perfect" is kind of a strong word. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The part where Gutterboy purposefully left out because of his agenda driven stance. It's why I don't really reply to his crap all that much. I think removing healthy pregnant women and children from the list is the right thing to do. Those cases should be handled by the doctor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
