Andrew Magnus had a handful of reasons why he didn’t plan on getting vaccinated for COVID-19.
The 55-year-old Calgarian felt the provincial government’s messaging for the vaccines was too fear-based, and he worried the vaccines had been rushed to market.
Information seemed to be missing about the gap between doses, and he wondered if side-effects were underreported, he says.
“I didn’t feel like I was getting the information I needed. So that led me to hesitancy on the vaccine, just because of a general mistrust,” Magnus said.
He isn’t an anti-vaxxer or a conspiracy theorist. He just had his doubts.
