And if the scientists answer is no side effects due to the small dose then I should be good because I was already exposed to it.
You do you!

This could just be as simple as the normal immune response to the vaccine, which makes the user feel sick for a few days means it's working. If the entire department does that at the same time, it's hard to operate.

80 percent of the trial participants experienced side effects. The side effects could be bad enough that they won't be able to function properly for a day or two with fever, chills, aches. Sounds miserable, but after that, you should be o.k. Most participants felt the side effects after the second dose.

My husband, my kids and I are not taking the vaccine. There is no way I trust something that was pushed out so fast without a longer term study. I don't want the corona-virus, but for most people that get it, it is just like a really bad flu. I fear the vaccine more than it.

I notice elderly people like my mom and dad and 70+ year old relatives are going to be lining up willingly to get it, but I worry it might harm them or give them bad side effects. I have lots of family members who work at jobs that require yearly mandatory flu vaccines who told me they will quit their jobs if they are forced to take the vaccine. This is very telling. Most people don't trust this vaccine and rightfully so.

What’s telling is that none of your family has looked into the science behind the vaccine.

Science or statistics? Because if I get Rona, my survival rate is 99.4%
For .6% I’m good! I’ll take those odds VS. taking the vaccine with zero long term “scientific” evidence.

If you get it, your survival is either 0% or 100%.

Statistics apply to groups, not individuals.

Hold on here, weren’t you freaking out about the virus earlier in the year like it was the second coming of the Black Plague? Now they are offering you a vaccine so you won’t get the virus you fear and you won’t take it??



Mind. Blown.
