(The Hill) – Most Americans in a new poll said they probably won’t get an updated COVID-19 vaccine.
The Pew Research Center survey found that 60 percent said they are “probably not” going to “get an updated vaccine.” Just under 25 percent said they “probably” will get a booster and 15 percent said they have already received the latest shot.
It has been over four years since the U.S. began dealing with COVID-19, with the spread of the virus causing mass shutdowns within multiple industries and people around the world being forced to stay in their homes.
Those in the survey who had hesitancy around the updated vaccine were asked about the “major” concerns that prompted them to skip the latest dose. Roughly 60 percent cited issues around side effects, 61 percent said they don’t think they need it, and 5 percent said the cost was a factor in their decision to avoid the shot.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
The lady next-door to my moms house was bugging my mother on over and over about why my mom did not get the covid/flu combo shot.
So annoying
