6 News was in Fort Calhoun Monday hearing directly from those living in smaller communities.
“You might notice my hesitancy,” said Andy Petersen, after being asked if he’d get the vaccine when it’s available to the public. “I think there’s always a hesitation when something’s new.”
Once the Three Rivers Public Health Department is through Phase 1A of the vaccine rollout they’ll move on to those 65 and up; eventually reaching the general public.
While some are still on the fence, others have their minds made up, saying they don’t believe the vaccine is safe.
