I took the vaccine and have said I will take ONE booster after that I am done with the co-vid vaccines ( unless it is where you can receive them with the annual flu vaccine: otherwise I am one and done with boosters. I am NOT going to keep getting them and getting them.

I am a white female turned 30 this year and got half way through an undergrad degree before dropping out. I usually vote republican and live in the rural south.

I hope after the booster it will last. But suppose it’s still mostly 6 months. Aside from the Delta spike, it’s been seasonal. Even if the vaccine tapers off at 6 months, doing it in October with your flu vaccine should be reasonable. Moderna is even combining them into a single shot, and there reasonable hope that mRNA technology will allow a more effective flu vaccine.

So if the latest strain from South Africa that has significant differences in its spike protein (or a subsequent variation) turns out to be able to infect both those who have had covid and those who have had the current vaccines are you going to pass on the booster designed for the new strain?

I wanted to screen shot, circle and highlight "HS 66%" because it's telling.
The problem is that there are lots of things that are correlated. Religion, education, politics. That makes causality hard to infer.

Probably I simply not going to get boosters anymore than a annual shot. If that kills me so be it something will at some point,so there is no point in becoming overly focused on what it ends up being.

Kinda ironic that directly under that post you have three comments suggesting we should be aware of the dangers of cancer.

What is so ironic about that? It is true that something will kill us all and while we can take steps to be healthy there is no point in being overly concerned such as taking shots every SIX months.

Or maybe seeing the dentist every SIX months.

... so, the question is: What common concern, social influence and/or ideology is retarding their [i.e. White Evangelicals] compliance?

As others noted above, it's hard when there's such an overlap between white evangelical Christianity and Trump's GOP to see which is the dog and which is the tail and which is wagging which.

If I were to guess, I'd say it's about trusted sources of information.

Once 'mainstream media' and 'the government' became dirty words in some people's minds, the only thing left was 'fringe media' and 'that guy on Twitter'.

I don't trust my local paper.
Well, they're just reporting what the CDC says.
I don't trust the CDC.
Why not?
Here, watch this YouTube video.

Your logic escapes me. I’m sick of the pandemic and vaccinations and all that. But I’m not going to quit taking boosters because it’s too much trouble.

Darwinism at work...

Speaking of... in Italy...

These Fools Thought a COVID Party Sounded Fun. Now They Are on Respirators.

At the parties, the infected mingle, kiss, and hug the unvaccinated in order to spread the virus, Franzoni said, adding the infected person could face criminal charges for knowingly spreading the virus during a state of emergency, which Italy is under because of the pandemic. ...

The man who died from COVID was an Austrian who regularly crossed the border to attend parties in Italy, Franzoni said.

For me it is every four, actually.
You will spend hours three times a year for not life saving medical care but find walking into a clinic for twenty minutes perhaps twice a year too onerous?

What if there was a vaccination for cancer and it was every 6 months?
