Team (I feel like we need a cooler name – Magic Makers, Rule Breakers?!)
Hopefully everyone had the chance to watch Karl’s video regarding the COVID Vaccine. I wanted you to know that I am available to talk through any questions you may have regarding the COVID vaccine or Task Force in general. I agree with Karl that vaccines are a personal decision. Please know that I will treat any conversation completely confidential.
Vaccine providers differ in terms of eligibility requirements – many are prioritizing food supply chain workers – and Belmark definitely qualifies as food supply chain! Also, starting today, Monday, March 22nd any pre-existing conditions are also eligible. This includes things like asthma, diabetes, and anyone with a BMI over 25. Bellin is taking appointments for this group at Lambeau.
If you are comfortable, please refer to the Belmark COVID website for a robust list of providers and get on lists (or schedule!). My personal belief is that the vaccine is completely safe. Think about how we come together to solve customers’ problems. We get together as a team with other really smart people, work through the situation, come up with ideas, and develop a solution. The world had a problem – it was every doctor and scientist’s Top Priority to solve. The best minds in the world worked toward a solution and rigorously tested it to ensure it worked and was safe. We now have MULTIPLE extremely effective vaccines that can protect us and allow us to have the personal connections that we have been deprived of for the last year. Last week the Task Force communicated the benefits that we can start to open up once an individual is vaccinated.
This is absolutely and individual decision and we fully respect whatever choice you make.
As we have done since March 9th, 2020, we want to be sure that you have access to all the relevant information so that you can make the best decision for you and your family.
Please reach out if you want to discuss further or have a super cool name to start referring to our group;)
