De
the answer is simply "NEITHER".
You read about things and make some determinations based on your own research. You are good at that. I see no worries. You have a very good Cardiologist and you likely have built up a great deal trust in him. As have I mine.
However, like you, I am no one to follow the herd. I have been susceptible to Pneumonia most of my life. So I take a Pneumonia vaccine. I also have taken a hepatitis vaccine so I do not get that ever again. It almost killed me last time.
But I don't always do what my primary care doctor always says. And I never put on one of those stupid masks during the pandemic. I simply avoided being near people.
SO, you have good judgment. ALL ya got to do is exercise it like ya always do.
If ya don't feel comfortable, ya can call me, Dr. micro anytime ya feel the need to.. (hey, if Jill Biden calls herself a doctor, I can too)
