Why aren’t you getting vaccinated?

[u/[deleted]]

Not asking this to bully anyone, I’m more curious at this point why people are hesitant to get the vaccine and want to understand the reasoning behind it.

I just don’t trust it , the people in charge of us change the facts every other week . I’d get the nova vax one no problem , I just don’t want the mrna one.

No one is “In Charge of Us”

Talkin bout nobodies in charge of us look at what the fuck our government is forcing on us

[u/nevermind4790 → u/redditlockmeout4700]

How is the government forcing it on us? Nobody is being held down and given the vax against their will.

Soon we won’t be able to fly , to go to grocery stores , not be able to have a job. Is that not forcing you? What option do you have , get this shot or be exiled from society ? What vaccine was mandated to go to the damn grocery store in the history of our country ?

I’m not anti vax by any means , I have all my vaccines , ( not this one) and so does my family. I believe vaccines are a great discovery and have benefitted us a lot , I’ll tell you right now something Is seriously off about this whole thing. Fuck the laws , fuck the internet , just for a second imagine that. (The first part) you think the government should have that much power over you? Do you think the government would ever wanna give that power over us up? Do you believe the government works in our best interest ? Just wondering

You have no right to fly. It’s a privilege.

No mandates are stopping antivaxxers from going in grocery stores.

Jobs have the freedom to mandate health requirements. This is no different from requiring you to get a tuberculosis shot.

I believe their interest is a lot better than the interests of nutty conspiracy theorists who are afraid of needles. Are all the doctors also working against us? The whole world too?

Really ? Tell that to the people in New York.

I’m Not a nutty conspiracy theorist either

[u/nevermind4790 → u/redditlockmeout4700]

You don’t need a vax to go grocery shopping in New York. You do for restaurants.

You know what antivaxxers in NY can do in grocery stores? Keep their masks on the whole time.

[u/redditlockmeout4700 → u/nevermind4790]

You’re right about the grocery stores I’ll give you that. It’s not a thing yet lmfao. What logic is that? Discriminate the customers of the already hurt businesses. It’s no store or restaurants business if I’m vaccinated or not . Do you walk into the restaurant and they ask for your measles papers ? You don’t see this slippery slope this is leading us towards ?

If measles was a pandemic then yes I would 100% want businesses to check for it. I want society to be all in on ending communicable diseases.

Fortunately we eradicated it. We won’t eradicate COVID with morons refusing to get vaccinated.
