Obviously, They Know Something.

With Israel poised to begin rolling out COVID-19 vaccinations, a new poll indicates that just over a third of Israelis say they won’t take the shots.

According to an Israel Hayom poll, 37 percent of respondents said they will not take the vaccine, while 19 percent would neither confirm nor deny they planned to get vaccinated. Forty-four percent of respondents said they planned to get the vaccine.

The older the respondent, the more likely they were to say they planned to be inoculated. Among respondents 65 and older, 63 percent said they would get vaccinated, while 20 percent said they would refuse the vaccine. Among those in the 50-to-64 range, 49 percent said they would take the vaccine, while 32 percent said they would not.

Among respondents aged 30 and 50, 42 percent said they would get vaccinated, while among 18- to 30-year-olds 34 percent said they would take the vaccine, while nearly half, or 48 percent, said they would refuse.

At 57 percent, secular Jews were the most likely to say they would get inoculated, followed by national religious Jews at 43 percent and self-defined traditional Jews at 38 percent.

The survey found that just 35 percent of Israel’s Christian and Muslim Arab population and 26 percent of its Haredi and formerly Haredi population said they would get vaccinated.

Doesn't seem like they know much we don't. I doubt more than 2/3 of Americans say they plan to take the vaccine. The only people excited to take this are the bottom of the bottom tier of "I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE" idiots who think vaccines = good, therefore not wanting to take all vaccines = anti "SCIENCE!".

Conspiracies around this or not, I talked to a virologist buddy of mine who's been published like a dozen times, and is in total support of the lockdowns / lefty politically / marvel fan type.

He straight up told me with vaccines in general, you don't want to be in the first few rounds of it until they've worked out the kinks.

This vaccines was absolutely rushed out.

Not only that, it's for a disease that's non-lethal to anyone who doesn't already have one foot in the grave.

I don't even take a vaccine for the flu, which truly knocks me on my ass maybe once every two or three years. Why would I want to take a vaccine like this?
