One in Three Americans Would Not Get COVID-19 Vaccine

Our country has a lot of morons. The biggest reason is that we put a paywall in front of higher education.

With regard to higher education, it isn't necessarily infectious for everyone.

There's an old saying that 'You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.'

No...

But they're wanting to over tax the people, tell you more what you can do and what you cant and killing MILLIONS of unborn fetuses right?

"Read my lips: no new taxes", right? :lamo

Don't believe the Republicans when they tell you they won't. There's not much difference in tax policies between the two. This is a big and complex country, and without taxes you can't run it or compete at the international level.

It's called laws. You can't run a country without them. Don't confuse anarchy and freedom. That's another thing they try to talk about in most high schools.

There are fewer abortions now per capita than when they were illegal. It's like prohibition. I thought you guys didn't like government telling you what you can and can't do.

Sure. George HW Bush was a conservative.


George H. W. Bush - Conservapedia

He just quickly learned you can't run a big, sophisticated, modern global economy like the United States with taxes from an 18th century agrarian upstart whose entire naval fleet consisted of 4 wooden boats. How many times must that lesson be relearned by our "conservative" friends?

Not sure what that means. You can't run a red light. We will restrict your freedom to do so. And no that does not mean we are on our way to becoming a fascist communist Nazi Muslim dictatorship.

Yeah sure- you count these things PER size population. If you have 5 murders in a village of 20 people, that's a much bigger problem than 5 murders in a city of 20 million.

And you want freedom, but you want laws restricting women what they should be doing with their pregnancy? Where are you going to get the funds to enforce such laws?

He is highly educated and competent. He would not be a good pick for the Republican party, as they seem to prefer imbeciles.

LOL, and you can still infect someone old or compromised and kill them. But who cares about that - it's all about YOU. If getting a free vaccine doesn't help you, but might save someone else's life, **** it. You got better things to do.

So.. perhaps that those who could get most infected/susceptible are the ones that should have been the ones who were isolated?

Not shutdown our hole economy(self destruct)?

Amen?

My parents were both teachers and dedicated tutors. The resulting advantage has been better than money, if you ask me. I am an advocate of that sort of education for all. I am so dedicated to it that I even fooled a teacher into marrying me.

Again, just say it - you don't care about anyone else. If a vaccine doesn't help you, but might save someone else's life, to hell with the others. There's no shame in admitting you only care about yourself. Don't pretend, though, that it's possible to isolate all those at risk of bad outcomes with COVID. It's not possible.

nota bene said:
According to a new Gallup poll, while 65% of Americans are willing to be vaccinated, 35% are not even if the vaccine is FDA-approved and also free. "While Gallup has consistently seen that U.S. party preferences play a strong role in Americans' views on COVID-19, the new poll extends that to willingness to be vaccinated. Eighty-one percent of Democrats are willing to be vaccinated today if a free and FDA-approved vaccine were available. That compares with 59% of independents and just under half of Republicans, 47%."
One in Three Americans Would Not Get COVID-19 Vaccine

If the vaccine is safe and free, what's the problem?
Click to expand...

If the FDA SAYS it's safe. We don't necessarily trust them. The vaccines are being rushed, and no longterm testing will be done.

This kind of vaccine has never been used on healthy humans before. It injects RNA into the cells -- a completely unnatural and unprecedented process.

Even if no one drops dead immediately from the vaccine, adverse effects still might occur years later. Cancer, for example, can take years or decades to develop.

mRNA vaccines are known to sometimes cause autoimmune disorders.

Some people will be more afraid of catching COVID 19 than of possible vaccine side effects. Some people have blind faith in government authorities and agencies.

Everyone else will try to avoid the vaccine.

To already terminally ill people also right?

Yes. "Others" would include the terminally ill. What are you trying to say?
 
slavister said:
in general, republicans, as per your op, in much greater numbers than democrats, don't trust science.

With this vaccine, however, considering we know how much trump administration likes to cut corners and does not care about peoples' safety, i would not be surprised if many more people would be suspicious of "safety" statements by what has apparently become trump's fda. Even myself, probably one of the most pro-vaccine people on this site, am having doubts on whether i'd be in a rush to take that one.
