Americans should consider consulting the very good health info put out by the NHS as an English language alternative to US or other sites.
Here's the NHS's excellent vaccine information.
I have no agenda - except wanting patients, people, to be as healthy as possible. I have no links to Pharma, make no money from Pharma. But I've seen patients die because they didn't get vaccinated - & this is heartbreaking.
