Is persuading people to take COVID-19 vaccine going to be more challenging than taking the flu shot?

No, anybody who's smart enough to get a flu shot will get the covid vaccine. As long as 70% of the population gets it, we'll be okay. If you're against it, though, keep wearing your mask until the vaccine kicks in and the pressure on the hospitals eases up, please. Not only are people dying here - the hospitals are dying here!

If the vaccine is Safe, I will be first in line to take it. 

Really depends on individuals and how they think/feel, ......  personally I will not be rushing to get one however friends I have all say they will once it is offered to them
