Platinum Contributing Member steve from amherst Posted December 31, 2020 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted December 31, 2020 They are frontline workers with top-priority access to the COVID-19 vaccine, but they are refusing to take it. At St. Elizabeth Community Hospital in Tehama County, fewer than half of the 700 hospital workers eligible for the vaccine were willing to take the shot when it was first offered. At Providence Holy Cross Medical Center in Mission Hills, one in five frontline nurses and doctors have declined the shot. Roughly 20% to 40% of L.A. County’s frontline workers who were offered the vaccine did the same, according to county public health officials. So many frontline workers in Riverside County have refused the vaccine — an estimated 50% — that hospital and public officials met to strategize how best to distribute the unused doses, Public Health Director Kim Saruwatari said. The vaccine doubts swirling among healthcare workers across the country come as a surprise to researchers, who assumed hospital staff would be among those most in tune with the scientific data backing the vaccines.

f7ben Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 This is quite the social experiment Are you willing, as an individual with freedom of choice, to take an unauthorized a poorly vetted experimental vaccine against a disease you have little to no chance of being negatively impacted by simply because it feels good to participate and conform? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Member BOHICA Posted December 31, 2020 Gold Member Share Posted December 31, 2020 Many of the healthcare workers already have had COVID...... it would be extremely dumb to take a vaccine when you are already protected from COVID by existing antibodies you have. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not then you should get the vaccine if you like. You could potentially be negatively impacted by covid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DNA is a part of the equation. C&P below... Like every breakthrough, the science behind the mRNA vaccine builds on many previous breakthroughs, including understanding the structure of DNA and mRNA, and how they work to produce a protein inventing technology to determine the genetic sequence of a virus inventing technology to build an mRNA that would make a particular protein overcoming all of the obstacles that could keep mRNA injected into the muscle of a person’s arm from finding its way to immune system cells deep within the body, and coaxing those cells to make the critical protein and information technology to transmit knowledge around the world at light-speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Crappie Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 I'm just amazed at the amount of misinformation surrounding this whole covid and the vaccine.

All the quicker to find out if there is issues with the vaccine or not and hopefully it calms down the people who are concerned about Covid so we can get back to the way it was before. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
