Will You And Your Family Get The Vaccine?
 
How many of you and your family will be getting the vaccine for C-19?

pikergolf 09-01-2020 06:47 PM

I will make sure it is well researched before I take. Otherwise why not, I take the flu vaccine for the past 4 yrs, no problem.

leaffan 09-01-2020 06:51 PM

When it comes out my son and I will for sure

tbiddy 09-01-2020 06:52 PM

Nope. I won’t be taking the first vaccine that is available. I don’t buy the 1st version of any product so I won’t be putting something that isn’t proven into my body.

HunterDave 09-01-2020 06:54 PM

Eventually, but definitely not as soon as it’s available.

KGB 09-01-2020 06:58 PM

Not until the next year, I wanna wait and see how many of you gonna turn zombie first, lol! :sHa_shakeshout:
At least will wait for a full year after they start the vaccination.

Scott h 09-01-2020 07:01 PM

As soon as it's gone through all the proper phases of testing I will. I wouldn't touch a vaccine that had been fast tracked for political purposes, as have been happening in a few countries.

graham1 09-01-2020 07:02 PM

I likely will eventually.
I’ll wait to make sure those with other health issues and folks at greater risk get it first.

Same

glen moa 09-01-2020 07:05 PM

The hard part might be when your told you can’t do something because you don’t have the shot.

tallieho 09-01-2020 07:05 PM

You betcha. I have been taking the annual flu shot since 1973 & every 5 years the pnuemonia shot.When i worked for Dominion Bridge in Calgary.It was mandatory.Flu shot,o..r good bye.I am sure ,todays standards are different.But i can honestly say.Worked outside all my life.I have only had the flu 2 times.66 years old now.

That’s a good point. The way our society lined up for toilet paper and hand sanitizer, maybe the healthy and uncompromised should let the others get first crack. Of course you can’t “panic buy” a vaccine but allowing the elderly and compromised to have it first would be a good thing.

bat119 09-01-2020 07:06 PM

It's going to be a long time before it gets here, lots of people will get it before I roll up my sleeve. I do have faith in modern medicine the flu shots have been working for me with no ill effects.

cody j 09-01-2020 07:09 PM

Will China be supplying it? Will they try to make in mandatory? if either of these is true I won’t be that enthusiastic about getting needled

HalfBreed 09-01-2020 07:19 PM

Maybe with at least ten years of research.

jungleboy 09-01-2020 07:28 PM

If the Liberals elect more than one Manitoba,Ab,Sask mp in the first election after the vaccine ,we will know there was a chip in that baby.

cfit 09-01-2020 07:38 PM

Consider the possibility that taking the designated vaccine may not be optional.

MountainTi 09-01-2020 07:39 PM

According to Dr. Tam, or whatever her name is, we won't be able to hug our friends or family again until we all roll up our sleeves and get vaccinated. This was on the radio today.
Just keeps getting better and better. The stupidity doesn't even astound me anymore. It's like it's the new normal. :)

Could be. Imagine the protests...

Agreed, they aren’t the most trustworthy.

pittman 09-01-2020 07:45 PM

Vaccines have risks but for sure - the worst being a serious allergic reaction. More likely a sore arm. You could get an infection at the poke site if you're unlucky too.

What's likely and more worrisome is that it won't provide 100% immunity to everyone. Depends on how good the vaccine is and how much it stimulates your immune system. Many vaccines require multiple doses to be really effective.

58thecat 09-01-2020 07:51 PM

Not until,the hordes go through it....kinda would like to see the fall out....hopefully positive but if it goes south I will sit back and observe like I always do....then base my decision on that....

TomP 09-01-2020 08:06 PM

I’ll hold off as long as possible...and then I’ll hold off a little bit more...this communist country can shove mandatory Chinese vaccines up their rear end...this virus isn’t the Black Plague and I’ll take my chances with it..

Nothing else that can kill you is mandatory so I doubt that this one would be.

Probably make the BLM protests look mild. And I don't see the police going around rounding people up for vaccinations. And then there are the religious implications, especially if the vaccine is developed using human fetus.

Just look at some people talking this idea and twisting it into "testing unknown vaccine on not "healthy and uncompromised".

Crayton I totally forgot about that part of it. I read an article about that possibility at the beginning of summer. Now that right there is a social and religious controversy right there in itself...

I’ll have to stir things up on the local FB news groups now lol

RandyBoBandy 09-01-2020 08:25 PM

Well, if everyone else gets vaccinated, I should be OK?? Right ??:sHa_sarcasticlol:

Kurt505 09-01-2020 08:26 PM

I’ll get it just as often as I get the flu vaccine.
