Yes, some are that stupid that they trust an untested new technology by the most fined pharma company in the world, despite being a medical doctor. This points to the lack of holistic quality of our univeristy education. They used to build charater, and teach broad understanding and critical thinking. Nowadays, they train highly-specialized expert monkeys that can't see or understand the bigger context.

Others had a lot of concern getting the 2nd shot after a bad experience with the 1st one but didn't feel they had a choice because they were mandated. Of course, they could have put their health over their income, but were simply playing the lottery.

And then there are those (I met that family), who had four out of five in one household lose their job but there was no way they would get that jab. I heard of a couple in the small pretty town of Denmark, Westerns Australia, who just moved into their dreamhome, with a huge mortgage. He earned big as an engineer in the mines but refused the jab and was fired. They almost lost their house but then he found a job planting trees and somehow scraped by.

I guess, the last group feels vindicated and happy about how it turned out. The others will - to different degrees - suffer from a wide range of regrets.
