I think that’s fair enough. For me, I don’t get the flu shot, never have and never will. Got the vaccine because I want to travel and not have worry about it. If I ever get to go to Africa on a safari obviously I will take whatever shots I need to go.
But what irks me is the disinformation and blowing out of proportion of the vaccine side effects. It’s almost like some people who don’t want the vaccine have to fear monger about it as a mechanism to cope with their decision. And that isn’t really beneficial to those who should probably get the vaccine because they’re ridiculously unhealthy.
100% with you on all of this.
If I wasn’t travelling later this year, might have considered waiting a little longer to get the vaccine, but that was more out of laziness and general indifference to the idea that I need to rush out and get it immediately. All the same, I was perfectly fine with getting it, and despise all the misinformation and nonsense being spread about the “dangers” and “side effects”.
If people don’t want to get it, or want to wait, fair enough. But if they’re spreading lies and propaganda about it, and causing others to refuse to get it who are very at-risk to Covid, especially this new Delta strain, at that point, they are no different than any other anti-vaxxers.
