More Propaganda: How To Entice Someone To Get A Covid Vaccine

The following report is by Ryan Prior from CNN:

As a pediatrician, Dr. Edith Bracho-Sanchez spends many of her days with nervous moms and dads listening to reasons why they’re worried about their kids receiving vaccinations.

It often manifests as just complete disagreements on how to raise kids.

Dr. Edith Bracho-Sanchez

To navigate the complexity, she tells her families that she would never judge parents or accuse them of not loving their kids any less if they’re afraid of vaccinations. She just asks that they talk about it.

For some childhood vaccines it can take years, but skeptical parents often come around.

She is now applying those hard-won experiences, in a more accelerated way, nudging families toward getting shots for their kids in how she talks with her own family members hesitant to get their COVID-19 shot.

These are new vaccines and that comes with a reaction and a fear that is very real. I think we also have to remember there is massive misinformation out there.

Her skills, and those of pediatricians like her, can help you as you talk with your own loved ones about getting protected against COVID-19.

Vaccine Hesitancy Is Shrinking

More than 100 million Americans have received at least one dose of COVID-19 vaccine, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

And openness to the vaccine is rising, with 74% of Americans reporting that they’re willing to get a COVID-19 vaccine or that they’ve already received one, according to a Gallup poll published on March 30. That number is up from 65% from December.

Still, though, some 26% of Americans say they would not get a vaccine right now.

Getting the country over the threshold of herd immunity means finding ways to persuade at least a portion of the people still hesitant to get their shot.

Give People Space, And Listen To Their Concerns

For many, COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy manifests simply as a fear of something new.

It is a normal human reaction to be afraid. Fear is very real. It does not make you stupid. It’s normal. They’re having a normal reaction and perhaps they haven’t been able to sit down with their physician.

Dr. Edith Bracho-Sanchez

Look for a time to have a calm, rational conversation, where neither person is angry or likely to start a fight.

The first thing I would say is ‘I get it. I totally get where you’re coming from and I understand that you’re concerned about this.

As you’re having a conversation with loved one, she emphasized being an active and empathetic listener.

If you really care about someone and you’re trying to help them think through something that could be beneficial for their health, if you yell, if you are condescending, if you share too much that they’re not willing to hear, you might lose that bond, and it closes the door for future conversations.

As a pediatrician, Bracho-Sanchez has succeeded by nudging parents over the course of multiple conversations.

Cite Scientific Data

Skepticism to existing vaccines — such as that for measles, mumps and rubella — has been driven by concerns such as a spurious link to autism, which has been disproven by a significant body of research.

Study after study has shown that vaccinations are safe and effective for preventing disease.

And the track record for the COVID-19 vaccines has been particularly strong. Adverse reactions are extremely rare and the vaccines manufactured by Pfizer and Moderna, for instance, have shown an ability to prevent disease well above 90%.

I think it’s important to note that the more that a group of people know about the vaccine, the more likely they are to take it.

Dr. Susan Bailey. President of the American Medical Association.

Last week, Pfizer released six months of data showing its vaccine is safe and effective. Steps like that could help satisfy holdouts. Some 23% of those opposed getting the vaccine cite wanting “to wait to confirm it is safe,” according to Gallup.

That’s another common question that people have, ‘Well I want to wait a while and see how it goes.’ Well, we have waited a while and everything still looks great. The bottom line is the greatest risk is not getting the vaccine and becoming ill with COVID.

Dr. Susan Bailey

She recommended pointing people to Get Vaccine Answers, a website created by the Ad Council, which offers clear explanations on how the vaccines work, how they were authorized for use, and what it feels like to get vaccinated.

“It’s Up To You:” The Latest Wave Of Propaganda

And CNN has created a resource with helpful, scientifically informed responses to common issues that those who aren’t sure yet about the vaccines often bring up.

Emphasize The Social Norm

There are groups of people who are vaccine hesitant because it’s part of their social identity,” said Dr. Richard Pan, a pediatrician and a California state senator, who co-authored 2015 legislation to remove personal belief as a reason for vaccine exemptions.

Before it was crunchy white moms who were into wellness and essential oils. That was the stereotypical vaccine hesitant mother.

Dr. Richard Pan

There’s a different poster child for COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy.

Pan, a Democrat, cited a recent study by the Kaiser Family Foundation that found 29% of Republicans and 28% of White evangelical Christians say they will “definitely not” get the vaccine.

They’re the ones who don’t think the COVID virus is that serious. They say that mask-wearing doesn’t help or is for sissies.

While three in 10 are opposed, that still means a majority have either gotten vaccinated or plan to.

In political terms, that’s a landslide. It’s over two-thirds.

One way to bring the remaining white conservatives on board, he added, is recognizing that most of them are already doing the right thing. And people often mimic the behavior of others in their social group.

When they hear that you chose to vaccinate, they’ll consider it because you’re part of their social circle. That becomes the social norm for your immediate social circle.

Share Why You’re Getting Vaccinated

Sometimes, the best approach for Bracho-Sanchez is to get personal with new parents during their kids’ appointments.

Her reason was getting the COVID-19 vaccine was simple. She was pregnant. She tells how she got the shot during her second trimester even when minimal data about the vaccines’ performance was available.

Believing in the mantra, “Healthy mom, healthy baby,” she wanted to be protected because she knew getting COVID-19 was worse.

It was really well-received. Moms would be like, ‘Really? You did?’ And they paused and sort of thought about it.

Dr. Edith Bracho-Sanchez

There are plenty of positive reasons to share.

Another strategy is to find out what that person is interested in and what they have been missing since the pandemic began. Are they missing being with relatives? Are they missing events they used to attend? Have that person understand that the quickest way for us all to get back to those things that we miss is for 70% to 80% of the population to be vaccinated.

Dr. Susan Bailey

The CDC dangled another incentive on April 2, revising its travel guidelines to say that those who are fully vaccinated are clear to travel at low risk to themselves.

Some people, who were infected and subsequently plagued by long COVID symptoms, have reported feeling better after their vaccinations.

Stories like that could be a light at the end of the tunnel for those who’ve had a rough go of it living through the actual virus.

Help Them Schedule The Appointment

And finally, vaccine hesitancy could be a matter of just being unsure about how to actually make the appointment and get to the vaccination site.

Help them schedule it. Especially people who are afraid will be like ‘OK, yeah, I think I’m going to do it.’ And then they don’t. It’s sometimes just because the logistics are a little bit of a hurdle.

Dr. Edith Bracho-Sanchez

Pull up your local public health’s department’s website together. Offer to drive them to the clinic to make it a little easier.

If you care about someone, you should help them. Say ‘Let’s do this together. Let’s do something, so if you get vaccinated, let’s grab dinner after. Let’s celebrate together.’ Just something extra like that to show that you care.

AUTHOR COMMENTARY

[29] A violent man enticeth his neighbour, and leadeth him into the way that is not good. [30] He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.

Proverbs 16:29-30

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

Colossians 2:8

On page 27 of my book “The Lord of Glory,” I cite Peter S. Ruckman and his comments on Colossians 2:8, explaining the “rudiments of the world” and providing some general statements as to how Satan entices and spoils a Christian or damns a sinner. They are as follows:

Everybody else does it.
We always have done it.
A little bit doesn’t hurt.
My conscience doesn’t convict me.
I know when to quit.
You gotta make a living.
It all depends on how you look at it.

This is precisely what this propaganda piece from CNN is all about. So many of those basic phrases can be applied to this article alone, along with the rest of the propaganda we have been seeing from all angles in the media, government, big pharma, bankers, and sacrilegious (political) Nicolaitans.

You can find these similar propagandist techniques used and applied to the children in our video “The New Nazi Youth.”

I am reporting on this, because, like many other times I have stated, it is important to recognize propaganda when you see it – don’t run from it, isolate it, neutralize it, and break it down. Ignoring it will only work for a short time, but if you do not have the facts readily available and a sound mind to use those, you can more easily get manipulated.

In typical CNN fashion, along with their mainstream buddies on both sides (as many of the mainstream outlets have had “journalist” jobs on both political spectrums and “opposing” camps (look into if you don’t believe me)), – one minute they say 26% are reported to be skeptical and not ready to take the vaccine; but then later they again cite the Gallup polls and say 23%. Of course, I am sure that was just a “typo.” Regardless, that is still more than enough to meet the “herd immunity of 70%.”

If these [witch]doctors want to have a calm dialogue where we discuss these “hesitancies,” let’s say myself for example, I wonder how long it will take before they get triggered and furious when I start unloading facts and common sense.

Did you also notice when the article said “The CDC dangled another incentive on April 2.” That’s right, reader, the media and medical mafia are dangling your God-given freedoms like a carrot. Donuts anyone?

I also get a kick out of that snide remark about “essential oils.” I use them, and guess what: they work. They are not “insta-cures,” but they are handy.

Also, when the media talks about helping your friend or family sign up for the vaccine, in the mind of a “libtard” who actually takes CNN seriously, this equates to signing up the person without the other person knowing it, then lock that person into a car and drive them to the pharmacy and say “it’s for your own good: you’ll thank me later.”

There are plenty of other things I could pick apart, but I think you get the idea.

Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.

1 Corinthians 15:33
