- NoPie 5y agoWhile it is true, we cannot compare Japan with socialist countries like Cuba or China where social conformity is forced much stronger. Japan had problems with HPV vaccine uptake which shows that social conformity is not enough and many Japanese can refuse vaccine. With covid vaccines they even delayed vaccination until their local safety studies were completed. It is clear that the government had learned from HPV vaccination failure and cared a lot about public perception.
