Dear Editor,

There are several reasons to get vaccinated and a number to be hesitant to have you or your children vaccinated. Getting information is a huge problem with first amendment violations that block incredibly informed persons from giving the facts and opinions one needs to make their own informed decisions. Another area of contention is masks. It is smart to seek second opinions about medical decisions.

Do you have access to debate that is part of every science advancement? Is the information you are exposed to one sided? In America, you supposedly have the right to listen to both sides of an argument, but incredibly smart, highly educated persons are being censored. Inquisitive persons cannot hear Robert Malone M.D., Peter McCullough M.D., or Scott Atlas M.D. among a host of other epidemiologists, health statisticians, and medical ethicists. If you only get your news from CNN, MSNBC, New York Times, and Washington Post you are not getting a balance of both sides of the issues.

The problem is where do you get information from both sides when tv and the internet censor who you can get information from. How much time and money do you want to spend researching to get informed? What are the credentials of those from whom you seek information so that you can make an informed decision? Who are these guys?

They include: Dr Robert Malone: BS biochemistry, MS biology, MD from Northwestern and postdoctoral studies at Harvard; Dr. Peter McCullough: BS Baylor U, Alpha Omega Alpha Graduate U of Texas Medical Center, Master of Public Health; Dr Scott Atlas: BS biology, MD U of Chicago, Senior fellow in healthcare policy at Stanford U; Stephen Petty: Professional Engineer, Certified Industrial Hygienist, and Certified Safety Professional.

It is your right to listen to who you choose and make your own decision. No one knows the long-term effects of these vaccines. There are many things about these untested vaccines that are raising questions about long term safety. I believe everyone should be able to listen to both sides of the argument. It is prudent to review the results of data collected from those injected. We know, now, that this disease is only 1% fatal affecting mostly the old and barely affecting the young. If you are under 50 or have children and don’t know the long-term effect, why wouldn’t you wait for more information before taking the jab? Your risk is small.

I am vaccinated and boosted. I have several comorbidities and am nearly 73. I am not an anti-vaxxer.

Daniel Reiff.
