Once the COVID vaccination becomes available will you take it? Why or why not?
Im a little leary on this one, mostly because I dont really trust big pharma, and this one was rushed, well, as it seems now.
I think I'll watch to see if the other villagers grow a 3rd boob, then consider it.
Likely unless there seems to be a problem. As a type 2 diabetic (albeit with pretty good control) I am technically in a high risk group and a working vaccination would let me ease up a bit.
The silent sheep will not need it !
I dont think i would at the first onset of the vaccines. 1st phases of vaccines or even tech items or anything really is almost at the prototype phase where it is prone to error. or shall I say "unknown issues". it will take me years of convincing to get this. unless it was a requirement that die die I cannot say no to.
Yes, no worries. I've never had an issue with any other vaccines I have gotten.
Most definitely! With the elderly and first responders getting it first the general public will have plenty of time to assess whether they want to get it or not!
Yes, but I'll be in one of the last groups to get one. By that time, any adverse effects will have shown up.
No, personally I don't think I have any reason I can think of, as to why I would need it,
In the world's harsh wear and tear many a very sincere attachment is slowly obliterated.

No.
I don't see myself from this point forward not wearing a face mask or gloves.
I volunteered for the trial study of one of the vaccines, so there's a 50-50 chance I already had it.
Curiosity is one of those insatiable passions that grow by gratification.
Will give it a few months and then if there are no side effects with younger people I will get it.
I never could grasp the concept of shooting up with toxins to improve my health. So, NO! I won't take the COVID vaccine or any other.
i understand some anxiety around the vaccine, but i don't understand not getting it. this disease has no cure, and it doesn't appear that getting the disease leads to any meaningful long-term immunity. your options are to either get vaccinated, or to resign yourself to a when-not-if situation.
there's no judgment here. i don't think anyone is stupid or bad for the simple fact of declining the vaccine. i just don't understand the viable alternative.
The virtual inmates have a remedy !
Absolutely. I'm a scientist at heart and I follow the science. However, vaccine or no vaccine, I think masks and social distancing are here to stay because even in the absence of the Covid/Coronavirus, it helps mitigate a variety of other respiratory illnesses such as influenza and the common cold.
Absolutely.
I'm in a very low risk population and my health region only has 16 hospitalized cases, but i would take it simply because it would prevent me from spreading to other people. I will wait until the vulnerable get it first before I take it though. I want Seattle and Portland to get it first.
Done, almost two weeks past administration of the Moderna product. And I'm not dead, my DNA hasn't changed, and whatever other nonsense is out there, is just that, nonsense.
Get the damn vaccine. It's a clusterfuck right now as states move to vaccinating Tier 2 patients, while people who should know better, who fall into the Tier 1A group (I was Tier1A(A), one of the first five hundred or so vaccinated in WA) are still being stupid and refusing the vaccine. Let's go with "there's not a lot of biochemistry and molecular biology taught in nursing and medical school" and leave it alone.
The Moderna product, the product that my employer abruptly switched to, does such a good job of imitating the *actual* virus that when you receive the second vaccine, you will have some kind of disabling reaction, not immediately but a few hours to several days later. Everything from numbness in weird places to your immune system going full elephant-on-meth, suppressing the manufacture of anything but "killer" T-cells, white blood cells remodeled to have one purpose before dying--kill the virus.
It's not fun, subjectively, but objectively, it's a super good sign that the Moderna product will prove out to be the best vaccine.
The Pfizer is more like a traditional vaccine, although none of the current vaccines in development or with Emergency Use Authorization are anything like traditional vaccines. It does not evoke the same immune response as the Moderna product. More like a tetanus shot than anything else. Antibodies are present in titers, as they are with the Moderna product, but the Pfizer product does not seem to evoke the same or any production of "killer" T-cells.
The Oxford-AstraZeneca product, no information.
The Janssen product, with a crazy low efficacy rate, just from reading the journals, nope.
