Third of Americans would say 'no' to COVID vaccine - even if it was free

Many people are already immune as they have already had it, so why would they need a vaccination shot?

I don't think we know yet whether having had the virus actually makes us 'immune' from getting it again, and over time. Viruses mutate - that's one of the reasons why the annual 'flu vaccine is always a crapshoot.

If it were assumed that having been infected confers immunity, an antibody or antigen test would make more sense than all the Covid-19 tests we are doing - which are a waste, for those who have no symptoms, because if a person comes up negative, they could contract the disease the next day. Are we going to test everybody, repeatedly, forever?

The whole thing has become so politicized that actual knowledge and information are being lost in the shuffle. All the 'news' seems to have time for regarding this, is political slant.

In all of the years (decades) pharmaceutical firms and research labs have been trying to come up with a corona virus vaccine, nobody has ever been successful. Ever. Why would people say there will be one developed now? There won't.

Read that again: There has never been a successful creation of a vaccine for the corona virus in all of the decades the experts have been trying.

Nor has there ever been a successful SARS virus vaccine manufactured despite years and years of trying. Researches finally just gave up because they couldn't develop one.

To think that we are going to magically come up with one within months of this novel corona virus being discovered last spring is ludicrous.

There will be subsequent pandemic viruses come on the scene in the future before a vaccine for the current one is ever found, if at all.

Waiting for a vaccine is wishful thinking. Talking about a vaccine is a waste of time and effort.

I am with those that say, even if by some far-fetched imagination, they manage to come up with one, I will not submit to taking it.

Thank you for making my point. That means there is even less of a reason to get this vaccination. Looking at how Flu vaccinations are effective correlates precisely with my point, exactly as your next sentence, and the rest of your post, points out.

I still see no reason to get vaccinated at this time, personally, nor be oppressed when I refuse to be vaccinated.

Fear rules the weak minds.

I’m sorry that you lack the ability to critically think for yourself. Anyone with a lick of common sense won’t touch this vaccine. You keep on trusting the globalists and I’m sure you’ll make a great new order citizen.

[Bulwyf]

You and me both. I don’t understand anyone who would want this.

[The Duke]

I would like to have it tested on liberals for a couple-or-more years.

[Bulwyf]

One only needs to look at history (70s China) and also the direction we are going (one world order). Which side are you going to choose?

[Bulwyf]

They will eventually try force, and many of us will go down swinging.

[Revel]

I suspect this is another fake poll. They are all fake. If not then their are too many naive Americans in this country.

[Crucial]

Count me in that one-third.

[Crucial]

Considering they are blackmailing the entire American population by holding back drugs that would effectively treat the virus you can stick the vaccine straight up Bill Gates’ a$$ needle first!

[Secret Agent Man]

yup

Talking about a vaccine is a waste of time and effort.

A few weeks ago, we BOTH had the usual symptoms and on what I think was the 3rd day of symptoms, I lost smell and taste!

A Dr had written a letter to POTUS about his treatment success. I contacted his office and after a 2 hr drive, tests and vital signs, Dr. came in to discuss his drug treatment. He quickly mentioned the Zelenko Protocol and I smiled.

The next morning, my chest congestion had definitely improved. Two days later, my sense of smell and taste returned (actually, both of us). After we started taking HCQ+Zn+antibiotic, things did nothing but improve. Before we got to day 5 of drugs, all symptoms were gone.

I've seen Dr's comment that most see significant improvement the next day after HCQ treatment starts. For the two of us, that was true.

The person who infected us was taken off respirator on Wednesday. She stayed home and treated like a cold. On Day 6 of her symptoms, she went to the hospital and was fighting pneumonia the last couple of weeks. IF you wait past DAY 5 of symptoms, it might be a death sentence (as it was for her). IF you are going to take HCQ (which can be obtained online with Dr prescription and they deliver medications through the mail), you must do before DAY 5.

DO NOT WAIT ON TEST RESULTS! I was tested on Tuesday but did NOT get results until Friday which would have put past DAY 5! The other result wasn't called in until the following Monday afternoon.

I've talked to several people and there are some that want to know, but a significant number of liberals aren't interested, they apparently can't comprehend that we have been lied to. They will NOT consider taking $25 worth of drugs because the media has convinced them it does NOT work.

AND WHY?

Big PHARMA cannot fast track drugs and vaccines if an effective treatment exists. So Fauci and his co-conspirators decree that HCQ+Zn is not an effective treatment! Over 100,000 people have died because of this lie. And PHARMA will make $Billions on the graves of many more.

Not so sure one way or the other. If it seems like it mostly works, with enough HONEST data, I think I’m in. I’ve never had a flu shot, but my best buddy passed a couple of years ago due to the flu. If it mostly works, and has few ill effects, I’m in.

I’m an old chubby guy, heart attack and triple bypass survivor, and I’d kinda like to meet my grand-kids. The flu shot kills very few, as opposed to the thousands who die from the flu, including scads of children. If it seems to work, I’m in.

“I absolutely refuse it.”

Would you say the same for the polio vaccine, pneumonia shot?

"Everyone will eventually develop immunity to COVID-19. It just depends on which option they chose. Door number 1 is getting the live virus from a stranger. Door number 2 is getting a (mostly) dead virus from a traditional vaccine manufacturer. Door number 3 is getting instructions for making antibodies from an mRNA vaccine like Moderna. The safest option is definitely door number 3 since it doesn’t involve any viruses.

The COVID virus does not care which door people chose because they only care about the laws of natural selection. They will spread as long as their are unprotected live bodies that can host them. Killing vulnerable people that chose not to protect themselves using nature’s own rules for immunity is just the rules of the game of life."

Hey, Dave! Hope you're doing well. My guess is the same in regards to the Moderna vaccine. For those who are interested and don't already have the link, here is the timeline with links to reports.

Words... I wasn't emotional about getting the periodical overseas shots. My buddies weren't, either. Far easier than many of the other things we did, and we weren't even mobilized. ;)

That settles it. If non-whites would refuse the vaccine more than whites then it means the vaccine is racist.

Here in Panama, they’ve agreed to be testing guinea pigs - another reason not to blindly accept the vaccine. My landlord says if it becomes mandatory, he will slip the doctor a $100 bill and ask the doctor to spray the vaccine into the sink but complete the paperwork. He’s convinced the vaccine will modify the patient’s DNA. I’m convinced they will inject a microchip used for the next phase of crowd control.

WHO is running this crapshow, WHO?

Exactly. Third base.
