Too much misinformation fueling vaccination fears in VI – Hon Malone
As such, he continues to plea with the Virgin Islands (VI) public to get vaccinated and make vaccination for COVID-19 a priority.
Just over 10,000 persons have been vaccinated, some 7000 short of the mark the territory is aiming for.
“I would also like to encourage persons who haven’t gotten vaccinated, that vaccines will protect you from the severe effects of COVID-19. The science proves this and the information is out there; you just have to seek information from reputable sources,” he said in a statement released yesterday, March 29, 2021.
“There is a lot of misinformation out there also that has been causing fear and delay in us meeting our numbers in order for our Territory to fully re-open safely,” Hon Malone continued.
Get vaccinated - Hon Malone
The Minister's comments came as part of a speech on Vaccination Week celebrated from April 24, 2021, to April 30, 2020.
“As we celebrate vaccination week 2021 during this COVID-19 pandemic, we are reminded that being vaccinated prevents the spread of diseases. The global financial impact that we all face during the COVID-19 pandemic is also proof that getting vaccinated is a cost-effective measure to lessening health, social and economic negative impact,” he said.
Hon Malone said persons who refuse to get vaccinated will continue to hinder the VI from moving forward and revitalising the local economy.
“We must do better and we must educate one another in getting the facts to make the best decisions for our Territory in moving forward,” he said.

To question the vaccine does not make one dumb it’s actually smart in a world of biased censorship, biased fact checking and media being payed to play a certain message.
People for this immunization should be careful calling it a vaccine as it is not your typical vaccine. The people telling you the “truth” are the ones preying upon people’s ignorance of the finer details.
There are traditional vaccines for COVID however most available are new cell altering technology.
It’s a load of crap to experiment on people with untested methods.
This isn’t anthrax that we have to lose all sense of reasoning due to the high mortality rate.
Why not start with the older form of vaccine? why reinvent the wheel now on a mass scale?
What role does a healthy immune system fit in with the 100+ recoveries we’ve seen?
What ever someone’s making money, they say it’s good for pregnant women too. Who would risk that untested no track record medication on an unborn child. That has to be when common sense kicks in.
Bill gates wanted the people to be vaccinated “no ones ever tried to vaccinate 8 billion people”,
Yet he doesn’t support lifting vaccine patents for poor nations to develop their own. Quite the philanthropist.
They have our leaders by the balls paralyzed because no one wants to be responsible for dead people. Stick to the experts ever changing script & catch no blame.
Fatal bloodclots no blame, side effects not observable until years later? no blame, they followed best practices and didn’t know better, it was an emergency, on & on.
Most problems have more than one solution & solutions make money. The less research & media attention going into other solutions the more money goes to vaccine pushers.
Misinformation is propaganda talk.
Meaning you found nothing wrong with what I said and now you want to attack my character.
Child I have a masters in observation common sense & critical thinking.
The FDA approve drugs that can lead toanal seepage, heart failure, DVT, Stroke, Caridiac Arrest, Loss of vision, hearing, swelling, and you care about what the FDA approves,its pure ignorance Stay cooped up in the BVI if you are from here as you won't be travelling anywhere for the next year or so and if you are not from here I hope the government makes it mandatory for renewal or new work permits. Just like other Caribbean nations are doing!

Scientists do not scheme, they test and trial but there are always small issues with a global injection.
Some people are allergic to penicillin, imagine a world without it if due to hesitancy when the first people allergic died after injection. Hundreds if not thousands probably died before they identified the cause.
But the vast majority is benefited, hundreds of millions saved, which is the purpose of science.
Vaccinate, it is science, and we have trusted science up until now with good reason.
You would want India’s issues here?
And I doubt “mad scientists” are allowed much free time in vaccine labs.
Your obviously high and paranoid, try better quality herb..
You are spewing so much debunked conspiracy that i am not sure how to respond.
But i plead that you go and seek professional help, you are deranged.
2/ Sell plenty plenty vaccine and and makes lots of money...We will have to take the vaccine by the hook or by the crook, they will make certain basic things available to fully vaccinated people only..Just a matter of time..
@De Pop Stat idiot
FYI Astra Zeneca does not make any money from its vaccine it covers the cost to maker it and not a red cent more.
HE WILL SWALLOW UP DEATH IN VICTORY AND THE LORD GOD WILL WIPE AWAY TEARS FROM OFF ALL FACES AND REBUKE OF HIS PEOPLE SHALL HE TAKE AWAY FROM OFF ALL THE EARTH: FOR THE LORD HATH SPOKETH IT...

adapt to the vaccine?
if the virus has a 90% recovery rate, why not let people naturally adapt to the virus?
Oh wait...but if people naturally adapt to the virus, no money can be made from vaccine. Got you.

Take the vaccine, you can buy , sell , work and travel, don't take it , you are doomed..sounds like revelation 13: 17 "hey all had to have this mark, or else they could not buy or sell anything. This mark stood for the name of the beast and for the number of its name."
