My parents got their Covid shot this morning.
My mom only gets it because I practically begged her to keep getting it every year.
My dad only gets it if my mom brings him along.
They don’t even get any negative side effects like I do.
This year for whatever reason my dad declared he wouldn’t get the shot.

He is notorious for being contrary just because. Like a pouty toddler who just wants to say no.

You know what convinced him to get it?

My mom told him about the research she read that it can help ward off Alzheimer’s. His mother had Alzheimer’s so he’s seen first-hand what that looks like and he doesn’t want to experience it.

So if you know an elder who needs some selfish reason to get the Covid vaccine, that might convince them.
