    1. @jstreets1983 That’s the employers right and responsibility to provide a safe work environment.

      Most primary and high schools won’t let you enroll without being vaccinated even prior to Covid.

      Social control is already baked into society with laws.

  1. “It’s going to disappear. One day — it’s like a miracle — it will disappear. And from our shores, we — you know, it could get worse before it gets better. It could maybe go away. We’ll see what happens. Nobody really knows.

    1. @DAVID that’s funny… Your genes mutate as you age anyway. You have any idea on how many micro organisms you inhale everyday? Your temple is constantly defiled..😂

    2. @Jo-Erlend Schinstad I’ve done plenty of research so you saying I’m stupid doesn’t phase me. Everybody has opinions right or wrong.

  2. I won’t be taking the vaccine… don’t trust the rushed process and public pressure Trump put on the team of researchers and there’s not enough time to get real data… what are the long term side effects?

  3. Santa, for Xmas all I ask is that you have Donald tRump locked up! Lock him up & throw away the key!

  4. Joe Biden already got his shot Isn’t that enough for everybody else to rush out and get one Specially since he panders to the black so much

    1. Your doctor really told you that you were allergic to all vaccines, regardless of how they’re made or what they’re made from? That sounds very strange to me. I would be interested in learning more about that.

  5. “Low Public Trust ” Who is responsible for that? WE THE PEOPLE HAVE TO HOLD THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION ACCOUNTABLE!!!

  6. I’m pro vaccine – they have been the key to much of our longer lives and improved health … but I am skeptical of this vaccine based upon the rush and the lack of long term trials.. and there is, literally, nothing anyone can say that will remove that skepticism because science is not perfect (and has never claimed to be) and history has proven the importance of correct trials and length of trials in regards to vaccines. Frankly, it is science itself that demands long term trials etc to demonstrate the sufficient safety of a vaccine.. I do get that this is a hellish balancing act – a devastating illness made far worse in some countries by the lack of social responsibility of far too many of the population and their weak government… and an insufficiently trialed vaccine.

    1. That’s true, but it’s also important to remember that one of the most important reasons why this process has been so much faster, is simply immediate access to finance. They’ve also had overlapping phases of trials, which speeds things up a great deal as well. But yes, if you’re able to commit to social isolation for the next year or so, taking the vaccine isn’t important and it’s actually better to let others who doesn’t have the choice get ahead in line.

    2. @Jo-Erlend Schinstad Fortunately I live in a country that has largely got control of the virus and only small pockets need to be addressed as they turn up. Government with a backbone and citizens that, for the most part, respect social responsibility. I’m more than happy to let others go first on this one if they so choose.. for me.. I’ll wait. tia

    1. Mandatory? Ah hades to the nah! 115,000 hospitalizations, 330,000 deaths out of a nation of 334 million. 7.8 BILLION ppl in the world 1.5 million deaths worldwide now tell me again why this should be mandatory and this virus is a year old. Stop just stop🙄.

  7. Nobody has forgotten Tuskegee and with that said whoever wants my dose can have it. I’ll pass🤷🏾‍♀️.

    1. Tuskegee was a totally different matter, given that the subjects already had syphilis, but they were never given the true vaccine to cure them.

    2. The difference with the Tuskegee Experiment it was only given to the blacks, this vaccine everybody getting the same vaccine. No the history before you talk about

  8. trump has done a good job of telling so many lies that the American people have become justified in their cynical point of view. The vaccination program will only become successful after the vaccines are separated from the trump administration. Make the marketing link between the vaccines and scientists and people admired and respected within the community. Then they will move in their own self-interest to save themselves and their families.
