There must be a lot of false info traveling. I think one of the bigger turnoffs is (like I think we discussed in here recently) that masks will still be needed after being vaccinated due to viral shedding. People hear they'll still need masks, so they wind up associating that with "why get the vaccine anyway?"...

What they probably don't understand is that we will need to have a certain number of people vaccinated before we can remove the masks. Until then, the numbers will likely not fall to endemic levels, so yes, their refusal to get a vaccine is no different than people refusing to wear a mask, in that, it just prolongs this thing and extends the lockdowns.
There seems to be a problem with having a little bit of knowledge and being smart, such that a person thinks they are informed. Almost every MD I have talked to is getting the vaccine. Compare that to nurses and ancillary staff, and it there is a stark difference.
