COVID 19 Vaccine: Prick Me With Your Best Shot | To The Point

Are You Planning on Getting The COVID Vaccine?

There are several reasons why the public’s confidence in the Vaccine is cracking harder than an iPhone screen on concrete.

* 37% of respondents who said they wouldn’t get vaccinated are worried about a rushed timeline.
* 26% want to wait until they confirm it’s safe.
* 12% don’t trust vaccines generally.

That’s despite nine pharmaceutical companies, including frontrunners Moderna and Pfizer, pledging to hold their products to “high ethical standards and sound scientific principles.”

* Dr. Fauci has also tried reassuring the public that the process “did not compromise at all safety nor did it compromise scientific integrity.”

At the very end of the Covid-19 vaccine’s supply chain are injectees, and the WHO estimates 60%–80% of them need to be immune for a population to hit herd immunity. Establishing public trust in these vaccines will be the next major challenge for health officials.
