Has been hesitating because of his fear of needles. I have been working on him since he became eligible to get vaxxed. I think I finally got to him in the last week, I made dinner for him and we watched a couple news programs on MSNBC, which he's never seen before but liked it. Two segments on the virus really made him think about it and yesterday I told him that he really needs to just fucking man up and get the damned vaccine so he won't die from it. He finally agreed that he should get it done. I will keep after him until he actually does it.
