I was surprised to see only ~50% of the thousands

I was surprised to see only ~50% of the thousands offered the Pfizer vaccine so far at my hospital have accepted. It is voluntary for us, and when they called my name (so to speak), I said yes, please, so getting my shot first available on Friday. I'm young and healthy and not really worried that SARS2 will make me sick with Covid, but it's nice to have some peace of mind that I won't get severe disease, won't have long lasting residence of the virus in my brain, testes, and memory T-cells (or who knows what will be the long term effects of infection / possible long haulers), and most importantly of all, hopefully will be much less likely to catch it and spread it to loved ones. For sure, the most vulnerable should be happy to get this vaccine, but I support personal choice in this decision and most things. Just have to hope people are well-educated about things, don't fall for all the various propaganda (on all sides), and can think critically for themselves. Someone mentioned that it would be a real confidence booster if doctors and nurses got the vaccine, as they are generally well trusted by the public, versus say politicians, career government workers, the mass media (propaganda machine), or fringe web sites.
