[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 1052407, member: 73592"] Stateside - yes, absolutely. Too many people living hand-to-mouth, who would starve if they had to take a few days off work, and that possibility is (or feels) much stronger than the possibility of being as ill or worse with the actual virus. Not to mention transport issues, and time off work to actually get vaccinated. Over here - much less so, but still plenty of feeling amongst the young that the side effects of the vaccine are worse than the effects (for them) of the virus. Basically, social media is full of people suffering and posting side effects (including myself in February) as those who don't suffer tens not to make a big deal of their not suffering. Meanwhile, the media has everyone talking about how infection in the young is 95% "mild". Alongside next to no understanding that "mild" in this case just means "didn't need to be hospitalised" - just like 999,996 cases out of a million for vaccine side-effects (but the 4 in a million chance of serious side effects was all they could talk about for a time - to the point that that vaccine isn't being made available to the young anyway) [/QUOTE]
