People Are Sharing The Most Laughable Excuses Not To Get The Covid Vaccine That They Saw On The Internet (50 Pics)
The World Health Organization has announced time and again that COVID-19 vaccines have proven to be safe, effective and life-saving.
What’s even better is that the new analysis by PHE found for the first time that 2 doses of COVID-19 vaccines have proven to be “highly effective against hospitalization from the Delta (B.1.617.2) variant.” So as the contagious new variant is sweeping across the country, getting a COVID-19 shot is now basically a matter of not getting severe complications, and for some, it’s a matter of life and death.
But when it seems like all the evidence of the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccination is more than obvious, some people still find the excuse of not getting it. And honestly, some of their reasoning is beyond insane.
From believing that a COVID-19 shot will turn you into a living zombie to claiming that Jesus himself is enough of “a protector and a mask” to protect from the virus, it’s one hell of a read. Treat it as a sci-fi read at most or utter craziness, and scroll through some of the worst excuses people shared online down below.

Considering England developed and authorised the first vaccine, using it first is what you would call "making sense"
Anti Vaxxer Pretends To Be Educated
What Are A Vaccine For?
Ever since the pandemic emerged, vaccine skeptics have pointed to the fact that the coronavirus vaccines were available only under emergency-use authorizations. So when the Food and Drug Administration this week fully authorized the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, COVID-denialists and anti-vaxxers have taken desperate measures to prove their points.

For everyone who doesn't understand, in the first post, the person in the profile picture is wearing glasses. This doesn't really makes sense if you blur the profile pictures.
Some employ arguments found on fake news websites, others go deep into conspiracy theories that revolve around mistrust in government and science. So in order to find out what’s at the root of the mind of vaccine sceptics and COVID denialists, we reached out to Robert Gifford, a Professor of Psychology and Environmental Studies at the University of Victoria.
Robert is best known for his “The Dragons of Inaction: Diagnosing and Slaying the Barriers to Positive Climate and Environmental Action” study. According to this theory, these dragons are a compendium of psychological barriers that hinder a person’s desired actions. Robert argues that “they have mainly been gathered to help explain why a person agrees that climate change and environmental sustainability are important problems, yet does not take enough action to effectively deal with those problems.”
Vaccines Now Cause Genetic Disorders
I really don't get how people can think of science and be like "Well why do the scientists get to decide what's truth and what's not?". You really have not been paying any attention in school. Like, at all, for consecutive years.
Why Get A Vaccine If I Don't Have The Virus
Totally...
“However, the dragons may apply to other things, such as COVID denial,” he explained and continued: “In particular, without data, my opinion is that COVID denial is strongly related to Mistrust, one of the Discredence genus of dragons. Deniers do not like scientists and governments (unless they are populist governments that also are skeptical about both COVID and climate change).”

Serious question; do kids in the US learn in school how vaccines work?
Anti-Vaxxer Logic
I had Covid spring 2020, got vaccinated spring 2021, had the bloody Delta aug 2021. I can assure you the second covid was nowhere near the horrible first one where I couldnt breathe properly for 3 months... Vaccines protects!
The professor continued: “Of course the Mistrust dragon is rooted in the Limited Cognition genus dragons called Ignorance and Confirmation Bias (that is, lack of factual knowledge and the tendency to pay attention to media that echoes one’s existing beliefs).”
When asked what to do when encountering a COVID denier, Robert suggested keeping an extra-large distance. “That’s about all that one can do. The other approaches are futile,” he said.

Okay, all jokes aside, mRNA is awesome, it's really flexible, and could come in handy for any future diseases like this. Imagine vaccines developing in a matter of months! I'm not wrong am I plz tell me I'm not spreading disinformation. EDIT: Ooh, that's interesting! Thanks!
Anti Vaccine Geniuses (Friend Found This On Facebook)
Having brain damage is indeed the only explanation for someone to decide not to get vacinated.
Oh Yeah, That Too. (#antivax)
Also it didn't disappear, people still get the plague but we have antibiotics now, and not wading around in our own muck anymore also helps.
If Vaccines Were Healthy...
Unless I'm mistaken, I'm pretty sure there are vaccines that can be sprayed into your mouth.

Literally nothing in life is risk-free, but which risk would you rather take: the slim risk of side effects from a highly tested & researched vaccine being used by a large portion of the world, or the risk of losing your child to an easily preventable disease?

What Is This?
There is some truth to this “SOME” being the operative word. Kids raised in super clean environments are more likely to suffer from things like allergies, this is due to the immune system not having to work, so it ends up attacking more things we commonly come into contact with, like asthma which can result in death. Google the term “Bored Immune System” to start your education

This morning I woke to a voice-mail from the hospital saying the Covid ward was full again and we'd be going back to 2020's "use the OB wing b/c that has good isolation in place already" routine. I'm just a volunteer, who can do triage and advanced first aid, work in research and advocacy, and if they're dragging my sorry butt in to help? YES YOU NEED TO VACCINATE. Because I'll now spend my day having people scream at me to go fornicate with myself, for, oh, six-eight hours, unless they have me in the ER doing whatever i'm told from registering a patient to holding someone's shattered bone in place. Yeah. So... VACCINATE. I want to go back to just research and advocacy, please... Patient-centered medicine starts with education of patients. ...my motto
When told to go fornicate with yourself, respond, "If I could do that, I wouldn't be here taking care of you, plague demon."
