I have a sister who very much shared your thinking through much of 2020 on Covid-19. However, that changed earlier this year when her hospital was overflowing with Covid-19 patients, the positivity rate surged to 18% in her community, and bodies were piling up outside the hospital in refrigerated containers.

She did not want to get vaccinated, but got the JNJ shot after seeing this carnage up close.

If you don't experience it first hand, there is a tendency to discount the pandemic. If you live in a rural area, simple math dictates that because of the lower population density, the chances of you hearing of someone who was hospitalized or died from Covid-19 is far lower than in a high density area.

As for the vaccines, 538 per their polling, found peer pressure is an important driver in getting vaccines. Those who have not been vaccinated are likely to have friends and family who are also not vaccinated and even encourage people not to get vaccinated. Those who have been vaccinated are the opposite.
