The views of the people of Rezekne on vaccination
Currently, the vaccination against Covid-19 of medical workers, social care centres and employees, as well as citizens over 70 years of age, continues throughout Latvia. A number of priority groups are then planned to be vaccinated, but the rest of the population will arrive in the summer. The vaccination plan drawn up by the Ministry of Health foresees to vaccinate around 70 percent of the population of the country by autumn. Is your turn to Covid-19 pots waiting and what people know about the vaccination in Rēzekne?

From the spring of last year, from the beginning of Covid-19, i am about vaccination. I have also applied for manavaccina.lv. I couldn't go on the first day because the page was overloaded, but then i went to register. I understand that only vaccination can be done with such a wide pandemic. I trust traditional medicine completely, so i have no doubt or fear. I know that these vaccines are not produced from “blue air” but are based on long-term similar virus studies. As far as the school and learning process are concerned, it is essential that most teachers have been vaccinated, so that both children and their families and teachers themselves can feel safer. Many of my friends and familiar people have been sick, some too hard, so i don't want to get sick. Next to me is Daddy, who has 83 years and i want to call. Vaccination is a matter of responsibility for equality and society as a whole. We don't live on a lonely island, so we can't wait and see how others will be, and only then decide. It is also very important to encourage one another to trust the medical practitioners and not be afraid of vaccination.

I'm definitely about, and i'll probably be vaccinated as soon as possible. Why? To protect yourself from a serious illness and return to normal life - to participate in competitions, visit events, meet relatives and friends. In the meantime, there are news that the Olympic Games will take place in summer. Let's hope it will. Currently, athletes are recommended to be vaccinated, but nothing is required. And in fact, even vaccinated athletes and coaches will have as many different examinations and restrictions as unvaccinated athletes during the Olympic Games. In any event, the Latvian Olympic Unit is recommended to vaccinate. We are informed that possible athletes will be included in one of the priority groups so that they can get the pots faster than the usual queue.

I'm manavakcina.lv, and i can't wait for my turn to be vaccinated. All my family and many conductors have been logged in and we are waiting for it to be. I want to go back to the normal working regime, want to travel, i want to sing, i want a normal day. As a teacher and a cordant, the remote work does not seem perfect. Cora's attempts, of_course, do not happen. The corners have been sent, but singing remotely is like eating remotely - nobody is eating remotely, but everyone is looking for a refrigerator. I think it is even mandatory to vaccinate. Not Facebook read “smart” people's thoughts, but listen to medical doctors and apply for their vaccine.

Medicine and science are still in the research process, but if i had had the opportunity to avoid this false virus before i was vaccinated, i would have done so. I've suffered this virus, but i'm struggling with its consequences. In the world as a whole, i believe that this will help to return to everyday rhythm, also in culture, tourism and other areas of service, but i believe that the voluntary will of every person must be respected and the health of each of them must be assessed.

If we speak globally, i believe that vaccination will certainly help to return to normal rhythm. Personally, personally, i am neutral for the time being. I probably miss the safety of vaccines and possible side effects. Due to the pandemic, the sales volumes of coffee have fallen. Tourism is, of course, the most affected because for several months the opportunity to visit our coffee roaster is completely excluded. We hope that in the summer we can return at least in the previous summer, even if there are any restrictions, but they would be proportionate and we could open the door to visitors.

Unfortunately, we have only two options to avoid contamination with this false virus, either for the rest of my life to isolate from society, not to meet friends and relatives, not to greet, go to cultural events, or to vaccinate. The first way is not acceptable to me, it is slow. Only vaccination is required. Although i am in a risk group and in the end of last year i have already experienced a two-way pneumonia of viral pneumonia, in this way obtaining Covid-19 antibodies, it is not safe, so i applied for manavaccina.lv. The vaccines injured by scientists have saved us from many terrible diseases and epidemics that we have already forgotten – it is tuberculosis, it is a child stroke and diphtheria, from which even several children died at the same time in Latgale in one family … unfortunately, i have also heard talk about the fact that unfair people will try to get false testimony about the receipt of the vaccine, thus continuing to spread the virus into society, it is awful!
