As Covid Deaths Climb, Even Seniors Skip the Latest Booster

33. I know four people who are not anti-vaccine who have not gotten their bivalent shots.

One is concerned about the side effects and is not able to schedule time off work to recover from the shot. One is tired of getting shots and sees getting it as just another chore to have to schedule in a busy life, and, as the article mentions, is a little unconvinced of its value. The other two have walked in to advertised walk-in clinics at big-box pharmacy stores twice, only to be turned away and told they need to make an appointment. There's a lot more confusion and lack of urgency about this vaccine. People are ultimately the ones who are responsible for themselves, AND the messaging/infrastructure around covid vaccines has changed drastically since April 2021.
