There are people refusing to take covid-19 vaccines in Indonesia, who have taken vaccines in the past, who are more willing to have a treatment that has been on the market for decades than one that hasn't (at least until long term studies have been made) and are glad they don't have to pay into the big pharma racket that most people in the country can't really afford.

- tboyd47 5y agoInteresting. Why do you think they are refusing the COVID-19 vaccine given that they have been vaccinated before?

- cinquemb 5y agoCan only really speak for the conversations I had with people I know, who have access, and those that aren't willing to take it have varying reasons: - dont want to pay for it - sinovac is most widely available and the optics of "causing" the problem and providing the solution don't sit well with them - dont really care, cant be bothered - they want to wait for a couple more years when longer studies come out about any side effects - already caught it and feel natural immunity is sufficient - no one wants to take responsibility for any adverse events that may happen (employers are passing out documents they want employees to sign, before giving them free vaccines) and that scares them more since they haven't done anything like that with things like dengue, tb, hpv, etc…
