Join us in this episode as we dive into the powerful story of “Max,” a patient who steadfastly refused all vaccines despite his well-controlled HIV infection. Through persistence, respect, and trust, our guest Janet A. Jokela, an internal medicine and infectious disease physician, shares how she gradually guided Max to finally accept vaccination. Janet discusses the strategies she used to build trust, the concept of “vaccine deliberating,” and the importance of patience and respectful communication. We’ll explore how these principles can be applied in today’s climate of vaccine hesitancy, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Janet A. Jokela is an internal medicine and infectious disease physician.
She discusses the KevinMD article, “Patients and immunizations: It’s a matter of trust.”
