2 reasons I just heard for skipping the vax:
“I’m scared. I never even got a flu shot.”
and
“I already had Covid and I’m immune.”
Most people are not vax ideologues. They just have the usual resistance & confusions. A few words of reassurance or facts can bring them around!

I don’t know which one I should get.
I hate needles.
I can’t afford it right now.
I just want to wait.
No pitched battle. Very simple to engage.

My most effective pitch has been “Really? It’s easy and costs nothing and you’ll feel so free! You can see anyone & go anywhere!”
Then I make appointments then & there for them on my phone.

(Yes, I sound like Flanders. I’m all but “Have you heard the good news?” But it seems vax proselytizing works!)
