Healthcare workers & Service Members are
declining the COVID vaccine in record numbers
Vaccine rollout hits snag as health workers balk at shots
By BERNARD CONDON, MATT SEDENSKY and CARLA K. JOHNSON an hour ago
The desperately awaited vaccination drive against the coronavirus in the U.S. is running into
resistance from an unlikely quarter: Surprising numbers of health care workers who have seen
firsthand the death and misery inflicted by CO VID-19 are refusing shots.
It is happening in nursing homes and, to a lesser degree, in hospitals, with employees expressing
what experts say are unfounded fears of side effects from vaccines that were developed at record
speed. More than three weeks into the campaign, some places are seeing as much as 80% of the
staff holding back.
“I don’t think anyone wants to be a guinea pig,” said Dr. Stephen Noble, a 42-year-old
cardiothoracic surgeon in Portland, Oregon, who is postponing getting vaccinated. “At the end of
the day, as a man of science, I just want to see what the data show. And give me the full data.”

"We are working quite hard on this and trying to convince people to
accept the vaccine and really to rebuild the trust in the vaccine," one
official said.

Amid random reports of reactions to vaccine surfacing at different parts
of the world, here comes a sharp refusal from thousands of healthcare
workers. Around 87,000 nurses refused 'experimental' Covid-19 vaccine
in the Netherlands, even as the Prime Minister Mark Rutte announced a
strict five-week lockdown. Cases in the Netherlands saw a steep rise
after the celebrations of Saint Nocholas' birthday on Dec 5.
