It was my first time with this particular doctor, and we went over all sorts of stuff. The subject of covid vaccination came up. I said no, I didn't receive any vaccination for it. She said I don't pass judgement and we moved on. Then she asked about the last tetanus shot I received, and since it was 10 years ago, said she'd recommend getting that. She said "the one I have here also has whooping cough, but don't worry, it doesn't have any microchips in it" and winked. I found it funny, but I'm happy she didn't try to push the covid vaxx on me. I didn't get the tetanus shot but I might, if it's just the TTD and not the whooping cough combo too. Btw, every single person in the entire building was masked but me. Signs posted everywhere, you must wear a mask etc, but I didn't wear one at all and nobody said anything about it. This was my first experience at a doctors office since maybe 2020.

I got a nasty cut working on a chicken coop and that was a situation where I did update my tetanus (it had been 15 years).
I asked for just the TD, not the TDP (pertussis) and I made sure to check the manufacture date - I told them I would not take any shot made since 2020 and she was fine with that
Good idea, thanks.
