First of all, it is important to state that corona affected me a lot both mentally and in general because hearing about the cases got me scared and I lost a lot of scholarships and jobs due to the lockdown but the vaccine still scares me.
The main reason is because I feel like there wasn't enough research done and with different variants coming out which would still affect the vaccinated people, you've got to ask yourself what is the point of taking the vaccine.
Secondly, as a woman, I have heard that the vaccine could affect childbearing which I don't know how factual this is but I wouldn't want to take my chances.
Now don't get me wrong, I would probably take the vaccine if it meant leaving the country or getting a well-paying job but for now I would be waiting to see how it goes.
It is also suspicious that Nigeria is forcing people to take the vaccine because Nigeria never does anything without a motive so I am a bit alarmed by it.
In the end, if I have to be forced to take the vaccine because of Nigeria then I would straight-up fake it and I know I wouldn't get caught because of how incompetent people are in this country.
