Most vaccine-hesitant Americans believe the government is using the COVID jab to inject microchips used to track people, a new poll found. One in five Americans surveyed in the YouGov and Economist poll said they believed the conspiracy theory that the vaccines contain microchips. Among the vaccine-hesitant American populace, that number jumped to 51 per cent. The survey included responses from 1,500 adult U.S. citizens interviewed online between July 10 and 13, and was weighted to represent the national population. Vaccination rates in the U.S. seem to be highly influenced by politics. The Republican-dominated states of Alabama and Mississippi have the lowest number of fully vaccinated people, at 34 per cent each. By contrast, two states with majority Democrats, Vermont and Massachusetts, have the highest proportion of fully vaccinated people, at 67 and 63 per cent, respectively.
It is incredible that people are influenced by “politics” when making their vaccination decision. But, I suppose that people who still believe in the Bible’s creationist theory for how humans came to populate this planet would find it just as simple to follow their elected representatives (Republican) when making such a life and death decision. I have no sympathy for anybody who chooses to not get vaccinated and then succumbs to the virus. Preventable death is a blessing that mRNA vaccines have bestowed upon us. When you can beat the grim reaper and send him from your door, why on earth would you instead choose to hasten your demise? The fact these people believe in such outlandish conspiracy theories like the virus being used to implant microchips is a sad sign that much of America is still under the influence of Donald Trump.
