Tried to tell my dad the truth about the vaccine but he gets angry when I do. He says he talked to his siblings and friends and they all got it and they all feel fine. Won't listen to anything I say and tells me to respect his decision. I cannot knowing that the second vaccine will most certainly shorten his life span. I love him and want to save him, but he's dead set on getting it based on the influence of his siblings and friends. What can I do? What should I do?

Do nothing. Here's the thing, you love your father, you have shown that by caring enough to try and explain what is going on, but we MUST allow for personal responsibility. The willfully ignorant are those who don't like the concept of personal responsibility, blame all on someone else. I refuse to get it simply because the hard data I need to make that informed decision is both cherry picked and untested long term (years). All you can do is let him make that decision for himself. The alternative is as criminal as pushing it as safe in the first place.
