11,3% of respondents did not know of any COVID-19 vaccine.
Respondents' comments about reasons for not willing to get vaccinated, spelling and punctuation observed:
I'm afraid that under the guise of a vaccine they are injecting something else. We can't be 100% sure of its usefulness.
I have had Covid already, it is the same as vaccination.
I do not believe in the danger of COVID-19, at least for myself.
The vaccine is new and it is not known how the body will react in the future
I do not trust vaccinations in our country.
I don't think it's possible to properly test a vaccine in such a short period of time. Plus, I doubt that our authorities are able to procure a quality vaccine at a reasonable price. With a corrupt markup, we will be injected with saline at the price of elite vaccines.
Any vaccination goes through a stage of testing. If a vaccine is found so quickly, why not treat people during treatment. What is it´s component. And the last time I saw a child of my neighbors at the age of three getting vaccinated against polio, a child became disabled for life.
I don't believe it's just a COVID vaccine. These days they can inject people en masse with anything they want.
