Hi n'yall. Before we get started, this is a reminder to keep it calm and civil. I was tired last night but please follow the rules!
There's many who refuse to get the vaccines for many reasons. A few I've noted are:
A legitimate fear of needles. (Was me until my health went kaput and now I have to get blood tests all the time)
Distrust.
Spread of misinformation regarding it. There's a lot of fear mongering out there!
They're young and don't feel they need it.
Socio economic status - Some can't afford the day or two off without pay due to side effects.
However, covid is still ravaging the world, hospitals are full and can't give any other treatments. Therefore, there's a lot of anger surrounding it and a lot of misinformation. The latest instance has people taking Ivermectin, an anti-parasitic, and since covid isn't a parasite, it's hurting them way more.
Do you believe vaccines or masks should be mandated?
What's your opinion on "vaccine passports"?
How do you feel health officials can go about giving other's confidence in vaccines or masks?
What can be done to curb the spread of misinformation?
