COVID Vaccine Poll

In NYC 55% of firefighters are opting out of taking the vaccine.

So, just out of curiosity.

Being where I live now I'll automatically be in an early line.

If you wanted to could you opt-out or is it required where you live?

[petzipellepingo]

There hasn't been any discussion YET but I would imagine they would definitely expect everyone to take the vaccine.

*waves* As for in comments:

If you get the vaccine, will you feel safe?
I think you need two doses; feel safe depends on what they say how long the vaccine will help. One year maybe? That's how long I'd feel safe I think. My guess it we have to get it yearly but we'll see.

If you get the vaccine, will you still abide by the mask rule? Depends what the government says if we have to.

A friend from work told me she's often got a cold this time around, not this year though. She told that her doctor too and he said he hears that often. That's because of the masks we wear.
A point for the masks, huh?

Yes, two doses. I think I might feel safe once we hear info on how people who took it before us are managing.

In Australia, during their winter, they had a record low number of flu cases and they say it's because of masks.

Makes you think of wearing a mask outside in winter. But maybe we had to wear them everywhere and that would be annoying. *sigh*

It's because no-one was bringing flu in from overseas. The flu cases stopped when the border closed in March.

I'll continue to follow the CDC guidelines, and will those at most risk to get the vaccine first.

I think each state gets to decide who gets the vaccine first in their state.
