Solving Practical Issues in Vaccine Hesitancy
Find Buzzy & VibraCool at shop.paincarelabs.com
First, Dr. Baxter talks about how all the normal safety and efficacy procedures were followed as with normal FDA vaccine processes, it's only more background information and subgroup testing that were deprioritized to save time.
Fainting and embarrassment about fainting are not directly tied to needle fear. Those who were afraid of fainting were much more likely to choose the J&J one-shot vaccine given all options - so J&J sites self-select for a more fainty crowd. Tip: drink 16 oz of a caffeinated drink one hour before, and don't get the immunity on an empty stomach. Feel woozy? Crouch or bring one leg up to push blood back into your brain. Fainting can act as a warrior response, allowing someone to faint but stay alive in battle. A CDC study of fainting with the HPV vaccine found no one fainted in the Buzzy group, but 1/10 did in the "listen to music" group.
Meditation was commonly user suggested as a tool for handling needle fear where topical anesthetic was not present at all. Thinking about loved ones and physical touch were also suggested as tools for lowering needle fear during injections.
