That certainly sounds like a “to benefit others” reason. I was just surprised that your medical condition alone wasn’t enough for you to get vaccinated. Or, did you decide to get vaccinated as soon as it was available, for your health, and the “benefit of others” comment was meant as a shallow attempt to shame me for choosing not to get vaccinated….
My PCP said they had enough vaccines to go around and she strongly advised me to get it early. So, yes, both my wife and I got ours very early on via the VA.
