And methodologically, this, which I can find few who will take seriously:https://thoughtscapism.com/2018/04/04/risk-in-perspective-population-risk-does-not-equal-individual-risk/ …
Do you weigh these “absolutely valid” reasons to be vaccine hesitant with absolutely valid reasons to protect against fate of 600000 Americans who died of covid?
It's a very easy decision in most of the world. In Australia where I and GidMK live, there's been almost no COVID since 1.1.2021 so some of my colleagues wonder whether to wait for the Pfizer vaccine. I got the AstraZeneca today.
And non uptake is not the same as hesitancy. You have to be able to book and travel to a vaccination centre at a time that may not be convenient
In the states, that's no longer an issue. For example, here in Michigan:https://twitter.com/KenHaddad/status/1388096997677314050?s=19 …
To Pro-vaccine activist with 2 mask and face mask and after 1-3 vaccins that wants to call out people who just dont want to take vaccin. I have a question for you, do the vaccin give you 100% protection agains covid-19? and how many vaccin do you have to take and for how long?
Why would you ask normal people this rather than reading CDC data on this?
Thanks for this. Particularly for marginalized communities, there's a lot of historical reason for hesitancy & distrust of medicine. Within living memory, indigenous people and black people in North America were experimented on without consent. Their distrust is rational.
Not to mention I would argue wanting to understand how it works and what the risk benefit ratio looks like (what could be determined as hesitancy) is also rational. I waited till the vaccines were approved myself and certainly wouldn't pop a random pill cuz I was told to.
Vaccine hesitancy makes no sense whatsoever, unless one has a relevant medical condition or has experienced some form of allergy.
