and Rob were pro-vaccine prior to COVID-19. They couldn't believe what they were hearing. Lies were being spouted on national TV. Dr. Fauci's lies changed their views on medicine and vaccines drastically. They felt a whole new generation of doctors had been manufactured by government mandates and restrictions. If the doctors did not comply with the hospital mandates, they would lose their jobs and possibly their licenses. The CEOs were managing the doctors. The pharmaceutical companies were managing the CEOs. Few people in health care were really looking after patients. What happened to the Hippocratic oath, "First do no harm"? Kathy and Rob knew that they were gambling by not getting the COVID-19 vaccine. One thing for sure was that once one took the vaccine, there was no turning back.

Kathy and Rob were in the "wait and see" camp. They were skeptical of this new technology that was untested and was being forced on the public. Even now, the vaccine is still being administered under the emergency-use protocol. It is very concerning that any alternative treatment was not being considered and was actually being banned. For years, medical doctors have used off-label medications to treat patients. Why were the doctors now being silenced by the government and social media?

Kathy and her husband, Rob, are retired registered nurses. They both read research articles and listen to podcasts to keep their minds sharp after retirement and keep up to date on the field of medicine, especially COVID-19. The government will spin this time in history. It's very important that people step forward to tell their stories.

Follow Kathy and Rob's journey through the COVID-19 pandemic and their insights to the politics governing the treatment.
