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.

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.

Taking Vaccine = Having No Faith In God

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.”

“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).”

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.

Dear God, we have a problem here with this proof positive that evangelicals don't even read their own scripture. Sigh. Just a quick review for folks who might need a refresher. In Matt 25, God separates humans into sheep and goats. The sheep are the ones who love and care for their neighbors, the hungry, and the homeless.

I've lost 2 family members, aunt and uncle from different households, to Covid before the vaccines were developed. Most of my family are vaccinated, and those who are not are waiting for theirs. My fiancée as well as 5 other family members who are vaccinated got Covid, but they suffered much lesser symptoms, got over it and feel fine now. The only hope we can get out of this is all the anti-vaxxers die off and end the anti-vaxxer movement. Also, Anti-vaxxers are usually vaccinated by their own parents while young making them hypocrites

6. they use MRNA in the vaccine, it scares you?... what's more scary a controlled weaker MRNA version that gets deleted after it enters your cells and did its job to deliver the message of how the virus will look like? or an uncontrollable virus that will absolutely attack vital functions of your cells? - the vaccine we use for this virus, is a special kind of vaccine. super modern and safe. it has "MRNA particles" in it - parts of DNA ( besides DNA is found in 90% of all living cells - also viruses) the special thing is that this MRNA is just half of our DNA it will be read from our cells and sorted as information as soon as it has been read it's not needed anymore and gets eliminated... the virus on the other-hand carries a full DNA and it will cut your won DNA and change it as it pleases you can imagine the MRNA of the vaccine as a IKEA Manual... while the Virus is a home-wrecker disguised as IKEA employee that is kindly there to build your stuff.

I was one of the first people in my state to get the vaccine. This is my experience: Step 1: I went to a public vax site, got jabbed within 5 minutes, and sat around for 15 minutes to look out for anaphylactic shock. 2: I went home. For dose numero dos, repeat steps 1 and 2 and then add step 3: I felt like crap the next day, as to be expected. I simply watched a documentary and binged some anime. The day after I was fine, it really wasn’t a big deal. Just get the vaccine.

Seriously wish anyone seeking hospitalization for covid who has not been vaccinated (and doesn't have a valid medical reason like true allergic reaction) would be refused entry.

An ongoing monthly survey of more than 1.9 million U.S. Facebook users led by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh recently looked at vaccine hesitancy by occupation. It revealed a spectrum of hesitancy among health care workers corresponding to income and education, ranging from a low of 9% among pharmacists to highs of 20%-23% among nursing aides and emergency medical technicians. About 12% of registered nurses and doctors admitted to being hesitant to get a shot.

I was a health care provider working through the entire first wave of covid for year and a half now taking a sabbatical leave because of severe physical and emotional burnt out. These people and majority of the population DO NOT understand nor have seen the reality of what this virus has done to our society and our people. People are all focusing on the byproduct/side effects of what this virus has done to us, ie. where is my stimulus check? ban vaccine and mask mandate, blah blah blah instead of focusing on how to cure THE ROOT of their riot which is THE VIRUS!!! Read these posts closer, many of them were arguing for argue sake without any genuine concerns. STOP THE NONSENSE if we want this virus to go away. It is the only way because apparently trying to explain why masks and vaccine are necessary is the waste of time.

You do not exist in isolation. That is the reason. The vaccines reduce risk. The chances of catching it so therefore the chances of passing it on to someone else. Fine, if you only put yourself at risk but who never interacts with others? Are you a recluse? What about the way the vaccines reduce the symptoms and risk of death - even if you don't pass it on to someone else is there no one your illness or death will impact? What about the bed you may take up or the nursing staff who will care for you? Do you not care about the work you cause them, the sadness as they see yet another death? There is no way that getting covid does not impact another human being in some form - that is why people should take the vaccine, unless they are medically exempt, and in which case they should be protected by the rest of us.

Grandmother: none of us are getting that vaccine because my husband has a bad medical history. ....... That was their excuse to NOT get the vaccine. Should come as no surprise we are transporting granny to a Covid unit and grandpa is in the next bed.

I've lost 2 family members, aunt and uncle from different households, to Covid before the vaccines were developed. Most of my family are vaccinated, and those who are not are waiting for theirs. My fiancée as well as 5 other family members who are vaccinated got Covid, but they suffered much lesser symptoms, got over it and feel fine now. The only hope we can get out of this is all the anti-vaxxers die off and end the anti-vaxxer movement. Also, Anti-vaxxers are usually vaccinated by their own parents while young making them hypocrites

I know many people who are not generally anti vaxxers but refuse to take this shot...And wishing someone to die because of their own life choices sound pretty harsh

to any anti vaxer who may get lost in these comments. In hope to show you a different way of reasoning, let me elaborate with you this controversial topic: What is your fear of taking a vaccine?

6. they use MRNA in the vaccine, it scares you?... what's more scary a controlled weaker MRNA version that gets deleted after it enters your cells and did its job to deliver the message of how the virus will look like? or an uncontrollable virus that will absolutely attack vital functions of your cells? - the vaccine we use for this virus, is a special kind of vaccine. super modern and safe. it has "MRNA particles" in it - parts of DNA ( besides DNA is found in 90% of all living cells - also viruses) the special thing is that this MRNA is just half of our DNA it will be read from our cells and sorted as information as soon as it has been read it's not needed anymore and gets eliminated... the virus on the other-hand carries a full DNA and it will cut your won DNA and change it as it pleases you can imagine the MRNA of the vaccine as a IKEA Manual... while the Virus is a home-wrecker disguised as IKEA employee that is kindly there to build your stuff.

I just can't read this the whole way through. It infuriates me how stupid too many people are. Do you realize we are in the throes of a new caste system...the intelligent, the ignorant, and the stupid? Unfortunately the stupid will take some of the rest down with them.

I think this is a wake up call. For too long, we as a society valued aesthetics over substance and fluff over credibility. As a result, STEM subjects are seen as uncool, as nerdy no thanks to the portrayal in pop culture. Also, start to really eliminate the influence of religion in governance and education.

Vaccinated people cut down Covid hotspots and increase 5g wi-fi hotspots. This sounds like a win-win to me.

I witness more anti-mask bullshit than anti-vax, but I'd say both of them are equally irresponsible.

I was one of the first people in my state to get the vaccine. This is my experience: Step 1: I went to a public vax site, got jabbed within 5 minutes, and sat around for 15 minutes to look out for anaphylactic shock. 2: I went home. For dose numero dos, repeat steps 1 and 2 and then add step 3: I felt like crap the next day, as to be expected. I simply watched a documentary and binged some anime. The day after I was fine, it really wasn’t a big deal. Just get the vaccine.

Seriously wish anyone seeking hospitalization for covid who has not been vaccinated (and doesn't have a valid medical reason like true allergic reaction) would be refused entry. We need those beds for people who were in car wrecks, have heart attacks, need cancer treatment, etc. Why should those people have to go without care because some self-centered ignorant shite decided he knew better than the real experts?

An ongoing monthly survey of more than 1.9 million U.S. Facebook users led by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh recently looked at vaccine hesitancy by occupation. It revealed a spectrum of hesitancy among health care workers corresponding to income and education, ranging from a low of 9% among pharmacists to highs of 20%-23% among nursing aides and emergency medical technicians. About 12% of registered nurses and doctors admitted to being hesitant to get a shot.

I was a health care provider working through the entire first wave of covid for year and a half now taking a sabbatical leave because of severe physical and emotional burnt out. These people and majority of the population DO NOT understand nor have seen the reality of what this virus has done to our society and our people. People are all focusing on the byproduct/side effects of what this virus has done to us, ie. where is my stimulus check? ban vaccine and mask mandate, blah blah blah instead of focusing on how to cure THE ROOT of their riot which is THE VIRUS!!! Read these posts closer, many of them were arguing for argue sake without any genuine concerns. STOP THE NONSENSE if we want this virus to go away. It is the only way because apparently trying to explain why masks and vaccine are necessary is the waste of time.

It's SOOOOOO hard not to just yell "STUPID!" at folks like this, i know i am guilty of it all the time. The truth is however, that it actually takes a lot more effort to do the logical and rational sidesteps in order to come up with some of this crap, so clearly lack of intelligence doesn't play so much a role as does the overly abundant availability of dead wrong information and the speed at which it spreads. Sprinkle in a little but of tendency to want to distrust authority and the need to fit in and..poof

Is it commonly agreed that mocking people that don't behave in a desirable way is the way to gain their trust and compliance? Has that worked in other situations?

Asking them nicely, providing them with facts, and denying them access to fun things (cafes etc) if they don't comply hasn't worked. There aren't many options left.

You do not exist in isolation. That is the reason. The vaccines reduce risk. The chances of catching it so therefore the chances of passing it on to someone else. Fine, if you only put yourself at risk but who never interacts with others? Are you a recluse? What about the way the vaccines reduce the symptoms and risk of death - even if you don't pass it on to someone else is there no one your illness or death will impact? What about the bed you may take up or the nursing staff who will care for you? Do you not care about the work you cause them, the sadness as they see yet another death? There is no way that getting covid does not impact another human being in some form - that is why people should take the vaccine, unless they are medically exempt, and in which case they should be protected by the rest of us.

Why? To what gain? I've read about people who thought the vaccine was a way to depopulation but why not just let Covid do the job? There is never any logic. I read the links people provide to their weird sources of 'vaccine=bad' and all the conspiracy theories and it's always some nutjob or someone who benefits in some way from lying to people - even if it's just greater publicity. Seriously what benefit would there be to all this? Why would the governments of the world unite on this one thing? None of the anti info makes any sense. I've had my vaccines and I'm one of the people it might have harmed. Why did I have it? BECAUSE COVID WOULD HAVE BEEN WORSE FOR ME.
