    Truck driver in ICU wishes he'd been vaccinated — but he listened to conservative talk radio

    Nashville Public Radio on Saturday released a story titled, "Tennessee
    ICUs Full Of Vaccine Regret."

    The station interviewed Joe Gammon from his ICU bed.

    "Gammon is a truck driver from Lascassas who says he listens to a lot of conservative talk radio. And the daily diatribes downplaying the
    pandemic and promoting personal freedom were enough dissuade him from vaccination," the network explained. "Tennessee hospitals are setting
    new records each day, caring for more COVID patients than ever, and the
    most critical are almost all unvaccinated, meaning ICUs are filled with regretful patients hoping for a second chance."

    Gammon, 45, is the father of six.

    "If I would have known six months ago that this could be possible, this
    would have been a no-brainer," he explained. "But I honestly didn't
    think I was at any risk. That is the naive portion on my end."

    "Just to say 'no' is irresponsible. Because it might not necessarily
    affect you. What if it affected your spouse? Or your child? You wouldn't
    want that. And you sure wouldn't want that on your heart," he explained.
