If it was proven to be safe and effective, yes, I would get it. I also get a flu shot every year. At my age, 66, I need all the help I can get to protect me from everyone else that thinks that they're indestructible.
First run of vaccine likely to be beta variations anyway. Give it 8 evolutions and a 100% absolute guaranteed cure rate then I may at that time elect to consider it.
1. Vaccines prevent, not cure.
2. No vaccine is 100% effective. Demanding 100% effectiveness means you are anti-vax.
3. There is no such thing as a "beta variation" vaccine.

I've had flu vaccines but I don't get them every year.
I'd think any mandatory edict would be immediately challenged in court....
But as for myself, I'd probably get it because I'm a high risk essential employee..
But even then, the Devil would be in the details.
Any vaccine that had Bill Gates involvement in it would make me raise an eyebrow and think long and hard.
In that event..........
You go first.
Mandatory vaccination has already been upheld by the courts.
Bill Gates does not make vaccines. It seems silly to reject one just because he helped fund its development or advocates for its use.
How effective are they? 100%? 50%? 30%? At 30% effectiveness whats the point.

Means nothing. I am not so-called “anti-vax” as you are more than welcome to go ahead and get one. I want a 100% guaranteed antidote, not to be confused with a vaccine. A 100% cure. Nothing more. Nothing Less.

You mean there are no formulations that may require tweaking or fine tuning – they never alter the vaccine once they release it? How are you so knowledgeable in all this? Any citable evidence?
