You'd think. However I know someone whose son died of COVID who refuses to be vaccinated. I know someone whose daughter was horribly and permanently injured in a car accident, not wearing a seat belt, who has made it her life purpose to rally against wearing seat belts.I don't think this type of sentiment denotes genuine concern as much as it does a general penchant for non-conformance and distrust of "the system." While I emphasize to a point, in most cases, I suspect if someone close to an individual with this mindset suffered serious symptoms or worse from COVID they would be begging for a vaccination at the next available opportunity.
What I tend to see is individuals who are going to great effort to find reasons NOT to be vaccinated. From not wanting to "be a guinea pig" to largely manufactured moral objections. Those tend to be the same people who are most vocal about being "over this whole thing" and just wanting to miraculously return to normal. My attitude is if you're not part of the solution, you're only contributing to the problem. That is of course excepting the small percentage of people who genuinely are at risk with a vaccine. We can achieve herd immunity without them being vaccinated, which makes it all that more important that the rest of us are. I was overjoyed and felt incredibly fortunate to get an appointment only four days after I became eligible. I'm actually a little surprised what a load it has been off my mind. I honestly wouldn't care if I had to continue wearing a mask for the next five years. I'm just glad to know I have done all I can to make this entire mess end.
