I just read this article in my local email but it's from a news outlet. It has very good info in it. In the lead-in that is not included here, it says the most hesitant to get it are young nurses and black people. I find it interesting that they are the most skeptical.
I was told by a nurse I know that at her hospital a survey was done among the doctors and nurses and just about all of the doctors said they would get it but the percentage of nurses was somewhere around 85%.

@contentandwell. An ex employee of mine who is Hispanic said she is worried about the safety of the vaccine and is not willing to be vaccinated even when it is available to her and her family in the future. An African American friend said the same thing. Her reasoning is that she does not trust the government. There is so much misinformation on the internet. If you check YouTube, we who get the vaccine are Guinea pigs. Regardless, my family is getting it, this covid is no joke.

@contentandwell, Very good news on your lab report, JK. Thanks too for the excellent link for ways to respond to those hesitant about taking the vaccine. Covid became another political football in my locale and I share the concern of others that mine is a state slow to adopt taking the vaccine. Having access to these fact based responses may come in handy.
