109. Let's talk about the Covid-19 Vaccine - ft. Dr. Spinazzi

With so much talk about the Covid-19 vaccine, it’s hard to know what to believe! And when we’re trying our best to protect our loved ones with Down syndrome, it gets even more complicated. That’s why we are so glad to have Dr. Spinazzi back on the podcast to break down all the science behind the vaccine - in terms that even we can understand! Dr. Spinazzi is an accomplished pediatrician, the medical director of a Down syndrome specific clinic, and our (unofficial) podcast doctor! Today, we’re chatting about why people with DS and their caretakers have been prioritized to receive the vaccine, common myths surrounding the vaccine, and where the distrust of modern medicine might come from. Dr. Spinazzi reminds us that of all the stages of this pandemic (from making bread to making tik toks), she believes we are entering a stage of hope.
