Most people who are unwilling to be vaccinated against Covid are concerned about side effects and question whether the vaccines have been fully tested, according to a new survey in 15 countries. The Guardian has more.
Other reasons cited in the survey of 68,000 people, led by Imperial College London’s Institute of Global Health Innovation in collaboration with YouGov, were the uncertainty that people would not get the vaccine they preferred and worries about efficacy.
The survey was carried out in Australia, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Japan, Norway, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Excluding eligibility, the top reasons for not having the vaccine across all 15 countries surveyed were “concerns about side effects” and/or “concerns that there has not been enough testing of vaccines”.
Trust in vaccines was highest in the U.K., at 87%, and lowest in Japan, at 47%. The U.K. respondents also had the highest level of confidence in their health authorities (70%), while South Korea had the lowest (42%).
Among those who had not yet been vaccinated, confidence was highest in the Pfizer vaccine in nine out of the 15 countries, and in three others – Canada, Singapore and Sweden – among those under 65.
The U.S. had the largest number of people across all ages saying they did not trust any of the Covid vaccines. The survey, which has been running since last year, found that until March the AstraZeneca vaccine was the most trusted in the U.K. among the under-65s, but confidence in it has declined in all age groups with the publicity over side effects. In most other countries, trust in AstraZeneca is low, as with Russia’s Sputnik V and China’s Sinopharm vaccines.
These findings echo those of another survey recently conducted by the E.U. agency Eurofound which suggested that more than a quarter of adults in the E.U. are either “very unlikely” or “rather unlikely” to accept a Covid vaccine. The main reason cited by participants was a lack of trust in the safety of the vaccine. Almost half of those who were unlikely to accept a Covid vaccine said the risks associated with the virus has been exaggerated and eight per cent believed that Covid didn’t exist at all.

We live in the upside down and the state now exists to censor any debate about topics such as vaccine safety, transgenderism etc. Very clearly the intelligence agencies are now spying on their citizens to such an extent that they are completely out of control imposing a narrative that they see as liberal. They are also happy to weaponised narratives such as COVID and the Ukraine war against their own citizens. Until such times as these agencies are scrapped things will not return to normal.
I compiled the attached table of Covid-19 ‘Vaccine’ Adverse Effects in November 2022, with data taken from UK, EU and USA databases. The total number of registered fatalities was then more than 83,000, never mind the countless hundred thousand other unpleasantries.
It was well known at that time that medicines with ‘only’ double-digit fatal outcomes had had their authorization withdrawn, so there was/is no excuse to continue distribution of drugs with fatalities in their thousands.
There can be no denying that disregarding these data was, and is, wilful.
Explain to a normie that the jabs have killed 2500 and they’ll laugh in your face, then explain that this is possibly only 10% you’re a nut job they’ve saved thousands in the UK alone. I’ve had 25,000 deaths as a baseline from the yellow card reporting, Prof Fenton has estimated 50,000. With excess deaths running at there current rate we’re talking over a 100,000 and there’s plenty more to come, add to that the infertility this is going to have a catastrophic societal effect.
Every day you here stories of heart attacks cancer, neurological issues and death, I’ve given up telling people it’s the vaccine they’re to entrenched. I’ve almost given up reading about this horror story what more is there we need to know about the side effects the list is already to long. Depopulation anyone where’s Hux when you need him.
Just a quick update. These figures are from July 2023. The latest figures published a few days ago up to 27th December 2023 are attached. I group by age here, but more details are at https://t.me/mikes_stuff/1402
In many, more normal, industries, recording of relatively minor errors are considered to be useful, rather than only dealing with severe outcomes. This is based on the idea that it is potentially useful as a method of avoiding worse outcomes. As suggested by others, it does look as if the pharmaceutical industry is in an upside down world.
