That was a test to see if you had latent TB, which about 4% of the population does:

But the very fact that you think you got a “tuberculosis shot” is a fairly good indication that that nurse knows more about such things than you do. Now that doesn’t mean she is necessarily right, simply that she likely understands the intricacies of the issue more than you do and has simply come to a different opinion than you have.
Hey I’m no doctor. It was a long time ago, all I remember is they stuck me with a needle.
Anyhow, does this nurse friend think her life is in danger from the covid vax? There are few other thing that would make me give up a career and all my income than something that put my life or my loved ones’ lives in danger. This is an honest question. Just wondering what it is about a vaccine that would make someone quit their job. I’m not promoting the vaccine here I’m just asking about taking what seems like major life altering action to avoid something that most likely won’t affect you in anyway other than side effects for a day
