“If there is nothing wrong with it, why are the experts in the field refusing it?”
If there IS something wrong with it, why are most of the experts in the field taking it?
I, personally do not know any expert that is taking it. And you for damn sure have my dose.
I know many in my area who work in hospitals, many are not taking it, about 50/50. Both sides have there own reason. The common link is fear, hysterical fear of Covid which according to the CDC has a 98.9 percent survival rate. Average age of death now is 75 years old, per CDC. The other side is fear of an unproven vacine. It has been given emergency approval, not full approval which will ultimately take months, maybe years, with long term effects/ interactions unknown for years.
Weighing out the fears, they can take their vacine and “ stick it”, not for me or my family.
PS, when is a vaccine a true vacine? These require two shots, mask wearing, and social distancing even after taking it....sounds like some witch doctor concoction not a vaccine.
In an article from Pew Research: Overall, 60% of Americans say they would definitely or probably get a vaccine for the coronavirus, if one were available today, up from 51% who said this in September. About four-in-ten (39%) say they definitely or probably would not get a coronavirus vaccine, though about half of this group – or 18% of U.S. adults – says it’s possible they would decide to get vaccinated once people start getting a vaccine and more information becomes available. Yet, 21% of U.S. adults do not intend to get vaccinated and are “pretty certain” more information will not change their mind.
21% of our population is close to 70 Million people that are flat refusing to take it, period. I also identified in the LATimes article that about the same percentage of doctors are refusing it also.
I use a military hospital and they have had their first rounds of which no one can refuse an order to take it...article 92. They are not pleased. And the military is shipping the Moderna overseas for active duty while the Pfizer is staying stateside. That throw up a red flag?
If this stuff was trustworthy and was not a danger in any way, why are 20% of civilian doctors refusing it? And why is it not as effective with minorities?
Additionally, and as the professionals know, these two vaccines have not completed the real world evaluations to determine their abilities. From the headlines, you might well assume that these vaccines will protect 95 out of 100 people who get them. But that’s not actually what the trials have shown. Exactly how the vaccines perform out in the real world will depend on a lot of factors we just don’t have answers to yet — such as whether vaccinated people can get asymptomatic infections and how many people will get vaccinated. And the Food and Drug Administration had said it would have considered granting emergency approval for vaccines that showed just 50 percent effectiveness.
These are part of the reasons such a large amount of professionals and citizens are wary of the vaccines. They haven’t been evaluated yet in real world conditions so it is still a crapshoot. Many are still waiting for results.
