MercyOne encourages everyone who is eligible and able to receive a vaccination to protect yourself from COVID-19.
Unvaccinated people are more susceptible to the virus and its variants, and people who are not vaccinated make up most COVID-19 hospitalizations today. Many individuals could avoid the hospital entirely if they had been vaccinated.
Still, there are many eligible individuals who have not been vaccinated, citing a number of reasons or concerns. In this episode, we bring those concerns to infectious disease expert Aneesa Afroze, MD, to provide additional context and even dispel some myths.

Crowded hospitals can strain available resources and impact other people who need care, unrelated to COVID-19. This is why it is important to protect yourself and do your part so everyone can receive the care they need.
