Does it come from China/Russia ? Then no thanks.

I've given this some thought and my risk for COVID-19 is pretty high, so at the moment that is higher than the perceived risk of what China and Russia do with their vaccines, i would therefore take it.

Also, UAE is using them, and I'm confident the Arabs would not just randomly give something to their people without ensuring its safe first, so that makes me feel better.

If the problem was manufactured, a total hoax, and based on a heap of lies, then the alledged solution can't possibly be any good for you.

“From our most recent survey, we saw that just over 50% of respondents answered “No” to a direct question on whether they were willing to get the vaccine when it became available,” says Matt Kloos, CFO of CompariSure.

Perhaps sentiment will shift as vaccine rollouts continue around the world, especially if certain inoculated countries are able to eradicate the pandemic, but for now South Africans remain very sceptical.

When asked why they were unwilling to get a vaccine, 34% of users cited “Side effects” as their main concern. Other commonly stated reasons for rejecting the jab included “Religion” (13%) and “Cost/price” (16%), with approximately 40% of respondents stating “Other”, with reasons like “fear of needles” and “government tracking” being supplied.

Well that is actually quite a good sign IMO. The majority of the reasons given are rational.

By the time the vaccine becomes available to most people, millions of people will have already been vaccinated, which will reduce the amount of people worried about side effects. Cost/price will also decrease with greater production.

With the government tracking, it should be private anyway. The record of vaccination should remain with the patient. Unless if they are actually planning to discriminate against people based on their vaccine status there is no need for the government to know if a particular person has been vaccinated or not.
