At this point I do not intend to get vaccinated. This is the answer given by 40.1% of the adult respondents in a survey conducted by the Centre for Analysis and Marketing.

25.4% state they have already been vaccinated, 7.1% - that they intend to get vaccinated within one month. Almost 15% answer: Yes, but I intend to wait a while longer to make sure that the vaccines work. 11% say they have contracted and recovered from the virus and that they are sure they have immunity.

“Many people are upholding unscientific positions, I have no idea why that is so,” Centre for Analysis and Marketing Director Yuliy Pavlov comments. “We are in for much more stringent measures. And we are doing it to ourselves as a population,” the sociologist adds.
