How many people do you actually know who are not planning to get vaccinated for COVID-19?

30. No one but I really don't talk to anyone much anymore

I am caring for my father 24/7. We are all pfizer vaxed. My 92 yr old neighbor/ friend I assume is but she is not completely coherent and I have not talked with the new caretaker. I sadly have not seen her except once briefly outside while I was driving past since early pandemic after I was infected with covid and we haven’t talked as much on the phone since my father’s case. I also assume her son who lives with her is but who knows and who knows on the caretakers. My other closer neighbors who we don’t speak with or interact with are nuts so who knows. I am sure some of my former wacky friends may not be but again I have no clue. None are dumpers as far as I know except one who may be, mostly left wingish hippy nutsos & possible selective cts etc. I am sure a good portion of the neighborhood may not be and I don’t know or really interact with any of them.

I made a yearly doc appt recently and was wondering if I should do virtual again, the lady making the appt said almost all are vaxed at the office but not all so I stuck with virtual.

One homecare individual who came to do a blood draw said she was not going to get the vax due to being catholic and because it would make you infertile so she could not have children😹 But a relative convinced her that it is better not to be dead than to have children etc. I told her it is not true. And in any case said I have no children and it is ok, just get some cats or dogs😹 she laughed. When she saw our sign must wear a mask even if vaxed she assured me she was vaxed with pfizer etc. there have been no problems with anyone masking. Our pest control guy had pfizer and he is still masking as well.

People who won’t/ don’t get vaxed and who have no valid reason like anaphylaxis etc. are stupid period, no matter what their background and education. As well as selfish and narcissistic. The problem is it is a brand of stupidity and narcissism that is killing others and affecting everyone in the society.

We talk with some of our remaining relatives in Canada but my father is not clear on whether they have had the vax available yet and which one, I am sure they all have had it but I forgot to ask them.

I do have concerns about people coming to the house for my father’s care since a lot of these workers have refused vax. He has a wound vac now and needs someone in at least 3 x a week until I can learn it properly. Plus there are numerous doc visits and have been numerous hospital stays etc. only 70% of hw are vaxed in our county. Everyone is masked at least. But someone un vaxed in the home for an extended period even if masked is not a good idea.
