I had my first shot without any issues and the second shot is scheduled for next week. Recommended by the VA.
I get tired of hearing people say that you don't die from Parkinson's. Instead you die from losing your balance and falling. You die from choking because you no longer can swallow. You die from sepsis or multiple system failure.
Following that logic can you say that someone didn't die from COVID? Instead they died from sepsis, pneumonia or many other related illnesses?
From my point of view, I recognize that many people with Parkinson's can live many years after their diagnosis. Albeit with… read more
