More than half of Israelis (52%) say they “think they would not” or are “convinced they would not” be vaccinated against the coronavirus if a vaccine becomes widely available, according to a new survey by the Israel Democracy Institute.

The survey found that less than one-quarter (21%) of Israelis would agree to be vaccinated during the first round, and another 18.7% “think they would agree.” The rest of the population said they did not know.

This should be age-specific in the responses.

I also plan on passing up getting vaccinated. I have no interest in being a guinea pig.

Note that they are going to be using the Russian vaccine as well as the mRna one.

I would be more likely to use the russian one than a novel mRna type.

But unlikely to use any of them

I found that both vaccines contain male fetial cells (lung).

So I’ll pass.

As posted on another thread, I’d rather take the chance of catching the virus itself, or more likely the chance that I never get it at all, than to submit to a guaranteed injection of some GMO/Deep State concoction.

The only 2 people I know who have ever tested positive, are well into their 70’s, and did nothing but take vitamin C/D and some zinc, and had no real issues at all. They were already over it before the tests results even came back.

“One thing Israelis are not is stupid.”

Sadly, you are unaware of our politics.

There almost exactly divided at 50% stupid and suicidal, just like the USA.

I count their skepticism about these vaccines as smart.

Yes, but it’s 50%.

I am deeply skeptical of Pfizer, as it is a crap company.

The Moderna one looks great.

Must be because of their "low iq" according to certain people.

At least that is what they say about non-Israelis that are inclined to decline.

Wonder if they will have the nerve to say it in this case?

Why should they; the hydroxychloriquine cocktail cures people within five days.

Israelis have learned, of necessity, to live with uncertainty and to accept the inevitability of death.

Our Feapers need to learn the same.

This is bad news for those of us who want the vaccine, but want a lot of other people to take it several months before we do....

Unfortunately that is becoming of necessity here (and globally, it appears) as well.
