US now delivering about 510,000 COVID vaccinations per day. https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2021/01/28/960901166/how-is-the-covid-19-vaccination-campaign-going-in-your-state … Canada, with 1/8 the population, today administered 432,000 doses. https://covid19tracker.ca/vaccinationtracker.html … Which is why, despite a big US head start, Canada's fully vaxxed rate will overtake US in next few days.
The euphemistic term "vaccine hesitancy" is becoming seriously misleading. It is value-neutral, even carries a faint connotation of deliberation and thoughtfulness. But that's not what has happened with the COVID vaccines. Anti-vax feeling in the US was induced, incited.
Had the US continued to vaccinate in the summer at the same rate as in the spring, the US would be near herd immunity by now. It took a lot of work by powerful people and institutions to prevent that outcome. It didn't just *happen.* It was *done.*
‘Vaccine hesitancy’ sounds so polite and, dare I say it, ‘politically correct’.
shades of “both-sides-ism
"Anti-vax feeling in the US was induced, incited." THIS! ^^^
The rubber is about to meet the road.
COVID Catalyst and Infection Influencer are two appropriate alliterations. Let’s try that.
After witnessing how readily many of our leaders and “influencers” were to throw normal people under the bus for an election or for ratings or for a bit more $ to throw on the pile, “hesitancy” was probably the reasonable response to the vaccine.
Feels like a better description for much of it would be vaccine-intransigence.
Exactly. I'm hesitant to each mushrooms I think might be edible. My 93 yo grandmother isn't vaccinated because she watched Fox News. (She's getting vaccinated because I said I wouldn't visit until she did.)
Thankfully my grandma--96yo on 18 Aug--is in a home that vaccinated, instead of still living with my mom who, I just learned, is anti-vax! Thank goodness "religious freedom" from vaccination wasn't yet popular when I was a kid, or I will wouldn't've gotten vaccinated at all.
