What's the risk of getting sick (with covid/flu) by going to the dr's office to get vaccinated? i have an appointment later today but i'm terrified of catching something. should i call beforehand and ask?

The best way to get sick is to not follow your doctor's instructions. Your practitioner wants you to be healthy. Vaccines help make that so. Hiding like a turtle prevents maximization of natural immunity. Listen to your Doc.
