I mean, the inpatient war, it's not as much. But in the outpatient world, we are certainly starting to see significant amount of vaccine hesitancy compared to what we saw even years ago. You know, it's interesting. We have been surveying our physicians for a while about burnout and moral injury. And in our third iteration of this assessment,

patient resistance to our advice and to our recommendations is one of the second drivers of burnout amongst pediatricians right now. So I certainly think that what we're seeing is an increased hesitancy and also refusal to vaccinate. Much of it coming from what Dr. Hotez spoke about, the misinformation that you're finding out there, and there's so much of it

And it's coming from so many different directions that for those of us in healthcare who are working in the trenches, it's hard. It's hard to kind of be the only voice that's fighting back against that and trying really hard to be thoughtful and compassionate. and to educate families that this is, you know, it's a decision that has really significant consequences.

So I can certainly tell you we're obviously seeing small case rates here and there. In fact, Hayes County just reported a positive case, and now we're chasing that exposure history.

It may be a one-off, but I think our greatest fear is that as vaccine rates drop, even across other areas of Texas, that that one-off case will turn into an outbreak very, very quickly.
