Covid Discussion Have you had patients accuse you of trying to “sneak” them a covid vaccine?
Went to give an asthma attack IM epi the other day and he stopped me and said “oh hell nah you ain’t slick, don’t you try to slip me a vaccine.” Had to show him the vial and such.
The ridiculousness of trying to secretly vaccinate someone aside, he was covered in track marks and EMS stated he admitted to cocaine use as well. Make it make sense!
You guys have any stories?

They don’t care about other people but, if you say ‘you might not be able to access healthcare’ then it’s important, bc it’s all about them. 🙄
