My family and I decided not to have the vaccines for three months. It is in doubt that makes us think this way now. Taking the risk is not our cup of tea. We have to wait what will be the outcome for those fellowmen who had these vaccines. We do not want to be a mutant after being injected.
Are you going to take the risk with Chinese vaccines?

The vaccines here are getting very good response. Our country's indigenous vaccines are proving to be very good. I would take it when my turn comes and that would be some months of wait. Many have taken in my family as senior citizens and frontline workers. They are doing good

That's a good result then. I am sure we can have the vaccines in time. We do not want to rush things up. After administering the Sinovac vaccines in the capital of my country, some had bad effects. Even the president asked to stop injecting to senior citizens and wait for further notice.

@arunima25 I hope they can do this idea. I heard that these vaccines are being produced in your country. Is it true?

@Shavkat These two vaccines in our country have shown good results so far with not many cases of side effects. And many have been vaccinated so far. The government is doing it at a 24*7 rate and they are reaching their targets soon. We just keep our fingers crossed that the whole world gets over this virus scare soon.

Most likely, yes. I have to wait though as I am part of group five and they are accepting only groups 1-3 now.

It s also the same thing. Senior citizens are on the second rank on the priority list and that includes my mom. She will not take it right away and wait for three months period. We need to be sure that the vaccines being ordered will not cause any bad outcomes.

@Shavkat I understand that. Here in the US there was so much conflicting information about the vaccine. Many of us were scared.

@ScribbledAdNauseum One thing that makes us puzzled is the Chinese vaccines do not have any proof of effectiveness. All I know is that it is only 50%.

It is also the same with the rest of my family members. We are not on the priority list. We are just concern with my mom who is on the second group on this list. She is uncomfortable hearing the negative effects of it, not only on Chinese vaccines that include the other brand vaccines available in the market now.

I took the risk with the first dose of the Chinese vaccines. I havenĀ“t turned into a zombie or a mutant yet.

I'm gonna do a wait and see first or I might decide not to get vaccinated totally. Search Nostradamus predictions for 2021 and Zombie Apocalypse always pops up

Since my mom is a senior citizen, she will reject the idea if it is her turn for now. The last time I talked to her is she was agitated about it. We decided not to have and wait for three months after being administered to the same group for three months.

You're asking the wrong question, Shavkat... The question you should be asking people is which vaccine they are getting and only if they say the Chinese vaccine should you ask if they are worried about getting it.
Notice, most of the people responding to you look to be getting Pfizer or Moderna vaccines.

LOL mutant. Hubby is getting it soon being a frontline. We joke around about being zombies and such. On a serious note we are just hoping and praying it will be the solution we are looking for.

That's great to hear. If I am still working in a hospital, I will be one of the frontliners. If it happens, it still considered a call of duty to be one. I need to carry on what I ought when I received my professional license before. Like you, I wanted this pandemic to end soon.

@Shavkat I respect your decision. I do not plan to receive any, now I know that I will not receive it even after 3 months. They say that we will not be able to leave the borders of our country if we are not vaccinated, there is no problem, I have come to terms with my fate ... if I something hate it, it is blackmail!

Oh, my. It sounds like a mandatory rule. The bright side is that it is not Chinese vaccines being ordered in my city. Technically, it is much better than Sinovac from China. Moreover, we are still not going to have them and wait for the outcome for three months period.

@Shavkat We currently have 4 given here, when one disappears for revaccination the other is used, can you imagine that?And that's one of the reasons it doesn't occur to me

I think it is not yet our turn being not in the list of priority to receive the vaccine yet since it is the medical frontliners that will be the first then the senior citizens to follow before our turn will be given. So I think with the way our government is getting the vaccines our turn will be delayed further.

I am also of the same opinion. Normally new vaccines take years before they are marketed.

@Shavkat But will the vaccines really work as we still have to wear masks, sanitize and keep social distance

@allknowing Actually, some issues need to consider. Some experts claimed that people who were injected need to still wear face masks and shields. It is a concern why need to wear them after being vaccinated.
