02/19/21 - Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400). Dr. Ken says that as of right now, 13-million have received the COVID Vaccine. The bad news is that since the pandemic, life expectancy in The United States has dropped by one year. The facts are that most people become exposed to COVID in their homes. Doug asks if people with strong immune systems have a more severe reaction to the Vaccine. Dr. Ken says no, but most people should expect some reaction. The best advice is to plan a quiet lazy day after you get Vaccinated. Doug is concerned about the Vaccine interfering with our DNA, but Dr. Ken says that will not happen. The next question is if you can get by with just one dose of the COVID Vaccine. A study now shows that getting a severe case of COVID can cause serious eye damage. Finally, a listener asks if getting a dose of regular Flu Vaccine can be of any help to keep you from getting COVID.
