Editor,
Our government is quite concerned about vaccine hesitation. It may be that many are avoiding getting inoculated not because they fear the vaccine, but rather the needle.

Well written, Mr. Donnelly. Soon, this injection will traumatize another generation of kids. Why couldn’t they develop a vaccine delivered via sugar cube or a pill we can put inside a treat? Oh dear, I may have inadvertently given some commenters another reason to disparage our great President Trump. BTW, just be glad the vaccine isn’t a three shot, or more, series.
