I've got friends waiting on full approval as well. Can't decide if that's mistrust of the government, or ultimate trust of the government.

Unfortunately it's taking some people (not saying you) to take this more seriously after someone is very Ill or dies close to them. Unfortunately that's not enough for some to get it. I'd think that would be the the final straw. |

All the studies come out showing the same thing, then there's the Israeli study showing different numbers.
Haven't really heard and explanation for why? |

I think it definitely plays in. This pandemic was politicized heavily, and people tended to be in the "lockdown/mask up" camp or they weren't. Somehow even though the vaccine should be a unifying thing, in some people's minds it just got added to a camp now called "lockdown/mask-up/vaccinate". Then when they see misinformation or hear people saying how the second shot made them sick, it becomes massive confirmation bias.

Dang. Just when I thought we were almost out of this COVID stuff we have two borderline DC threads about it in the lounge (not saying they don’t belong here, just sad how fast it spiraled this way) and we seem just as divided as ever still. This is one hell of a pandemic.
Couldn’t a large spread among the unvaccinated be good in the long run as well, though? If they’re likely never going to give in and get the shot, I would think we’d want to spread as much of the natural antibodies around as we can to attempt to reach the herd immunity that way. This is being said by someone who admittedly doesn’t fully grasp the herd immunity, but from my understanding we were always going to need a mixture of both. Are the hospitals getting overrun in some places again or are we just worried about the rising counts of cases themselves. Haven’t followed along lately with things seeming to clear up, but it’s obvious we’re still in this shit. |

Got off the plane from China this afternoon. Haven’t set foot on American soil since January 2020. Quarantining for seven days and then I’ll get the first shot after I’m finished. Glad I avoided getting the sinovac shot while I was in China.
