2. Pregnancy increases your chances of getting Covid? (No. 125,000 pregnant women have gotten Covid, but only 165 pregnant women have died of Covid, NOT the vaccine.  Only 1/3 of pregnant women are vaccinated.  Your immune system is under stress while pregnant, so one of the best things you can do is get vaccinated).
3. What do I have to fear from unvaccinated people IF I AM VACCINATED? (Nothing. Vaccinated folks might get a slight infection BUT will have very light symptoms, won’t go to the hospital AND WON’T GET DEAD).
4. The head of Moderna said the virus would be gone in a year? (Wow, hope he’s right.  Will be endemic, not PANDEMIC in a year).
