I am supposed to complete a survey and say "yes" or "no" by Monday if I want to receive the COVID Vaccine next week being offered to me as a firefighter...

I was just talking to my Physical Therapist about this yesterday. She's also on the fence because she wants another baby next year,
I would imagine my employer (DHS) will require it at some time. I'm retiring in 2021 so verdict is still out for me.

They sent us an "anonymous" survey to gauge interest in getting the vaccine. The first question in the "anonymous" survey was last name, first name then employee ID. I did not participate.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Just curious your rationale for the big fat NOPE? Once, or better yet, IF it is proven safe and effective, will you change your mind or is it no to all vaccines?

I don't understand anyone trying to sell others on not taking the vaccine, even it were only 50% effective. I see it as my civic duty. It would still help keep your family safe. Complications have not occurred on the test subjects.

Spoke w/my doctor about this a couple of days ago. Nope! Not enough data on long term effects.

It is not proven. The virus is really no big deal, in spite of what the media makes it out to be. I would rather get sick, and let my body build its' own immunity that to get the vaccine. Same as my parents had me do with the chickenpox. No, I will not change my mind. And no I am not against all vaccines. I am just against one that is months old, instead of decades old. 40 years old, fit, zero health problems, live way out in the country with plenty fresh air. I'll take my chances.

One year old virus, four month old vaccine.

There will be adverse reactions just as there is with any and all vaccines and medications... I will take it... My wife will not per her choice.... My business partner, a physician, took it yesterday... To each their own.... I think by the time it is available for me, we will see if there are wide spread adverse reactions, which I am betting we won’t see.... I am not judging those choosing to not take the vaccine.

I'm 5 days in testing positive, this stuff is kicking my butt coughing congested fever body aches nose burns eyes burn taste and smell all screwed up Dr. Put me on nebulizer today and it's tough to walk outside just to carry out the trash without running out of air, so if I get a chance to get vaccinated I will.But that's just my view on it and I'm typing with a fever so please excuse errors!

Watch that fever and watch your pulse ox...get a meter if you don't have one. I will be taking the vaccine. I have spoken with too many physicians and medical personnel I know and respect to not take it. I will take it at a hospital/doctor's office because I am allergic to certain medications and apparently that can be a risk with the Pfizer one. I am not, at least to my knowledge, however, allergic to any vaccines.

No for me i'll take a 98.2% chance of survival over a 90-95% effective vaccine, that i don't know exactly what is in it.

I’m probably in the low risk group so by the time it’s available to me we should have a better understanding of the vaccine. I want the vaccine I just wouldn’t take it today if I had to decide.

So no it’s not Trumps vaccine, he just happens to be the dude in the WH and pushing it forward to keep all the crazy [censored] masses from really going over the edge. This is nothing more than a money grab from a fake “pandemic”. For my age group I’m over 99% for survival I’ll take that all day everyday over some pharmaceutical companies medicine. Most likely we’ll be seeing commercials in 3-5 years saying “did you or one of your loved ones take the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine and develop zombism? You might be entitled to cash payout.” Long way or saying not no but hell no.
