I would get it after proven by millions of others taking it without issues. The only reason I would take it is to protect the health of my parents. I don’t see them often and wouldn’t be able to live with giving it to them.

Unfortunately there is no guarantee that it will work and be safe for you and while you think you're safe you very well may be infecting others.
That sheds light on two 2020 phenomena-I want to see if the prisoners mutate.
they do that with the flu shots at my work. They make you hang around for 120 minutes and then check out with the receptionist on your way out. That isn't new...
I was looking for the "/sarc"...
Well, my worst vaccine reaction to date was the day after shingles shot part 1, when I felt like warmed-over crap. (In fairness, I was warned that was likely.)No, lots of places that give shots want you to hang out for 15 minutes or so. That is nothing new this year or 20 years ago. That should catch most of the immediate issues.
Do I need to link Merriam Webster so you can look up what "immediate" means?
I use to get the flu shot until my Dr. determined that the Flu shot made me sicker than if I got the flu. The first flu shot I ever got was in Navy Boot camp which promptly put me in the hospital two days later. Every flu shot I got after that made me incredibly sick but didn't show up for days. I haven't had a shot now for decades and my Dr. doesn't even recommend it. All this to say that not every shot will manifest "bad" stuff in a few minutes (immediately).No, lots of places that give shots want you to hang out for 15 minutes or so. That is nothing new this year or 20 years ago. That should catch most of the immediate issues.

Well, Obama and GWB are taking first?it will depend upon what % of those who will get it now will end up paralyzed or with other significant enough complications.
this vaccine business is not optimal when rushed.
Basically this. Right now, I'm much less concerned about COVID personally than taking this vaccine. I don't expect my evaluation to change unless COVID mutates to Ebola or I get into a higher risk group. So no vaccine for me for the foreseeable future. #mybodymychoiceThis is why we need to balance our risk of covid with the potential risk of the vaccine when deciding whether or not to take it.
Every choice has risks.
My 80 year old parents - emphysema, COPD, risk of death from covid is great. Obviously take it as soon as possible. Since the risk of the vaccine is most likely less than the risk of the disease.
My 10 year old child - very healthy, NOT A SINGLE DEATH from Covid in MA among the age 0-19 age group. I will put off having her vaccinated as long as possible. Conversely, because her risk of death from Covid is nearly zero and the risk from the vaccine is unknown, but probably greater than zero.
I'm a 50ish year old in good shape with no comorbidities. I'll probably wait a few months, just to see if anything horrendous happens and re-evaluate then.
That sucks, but it sounds like a vacation compared to shingles which can be a solid week of hell and then months of lingering discomfort.Nope, no thanks, I'm good with being a loner and staying away from other people,on the recommendation of The Little brown Man fore shingles virus. First innoc was no problemcouple months later 2nd inocu, knocked my dick in the dirt,I was weak as a kitten and cold enough to shiver for 4-6 hrs that night, Dindn; feel rightfor a day or so and it took several days to be al over whatever kicked my 230lb ass.
This. I know a few guys who have had bouts of it.That sucks, but it sounds like a vacation compared to shingles which can be a solid week of hell and then months of lingering discomfort.
The UK issued allergy warnings for the Pfizer version. Cautioned anyone with food, environmental or other allergies.I just read something about someone in AK that had an allergic reaction to the shot about 10 mins after getting it. Suppose there will be a percentage of people that may be allergic to some ingredient.
Bells Palsy huh, that would concern me as I've had it twice before. Luckily no lasting affects, but I wonder if that would make me more likely to get it again hmmm.
Since the test for covid is questionable and since people that have tested positive and die with covid are listed as a death from covid even if that's not what really caused their death. Also just because someone is young and appears healthy inside they really may not be especially if they eat a high starch/carb diet as many people that do aerobic exercises do. So are you really sure all of them died from covid or with covid? As has been pointed out before an intake of Vitamin D3 along with zinc, quercitin, Vitamin C etc. but especially Vitamin D3 can reduce the chances of a serious case and or complications from covid.I plan on just continuing what I am currently doing behaviorally even after I’m vaccinated. And of course, there are no guarantees.
My perspective is biased as I’ve seen a lot of people (including some young, healthy folks) die of COVID.
That truly was a pain in the ass that took a while to work out.I’m still working off that penicillin shot in my ass from the army 30 years ago.

Last February big pharma didn't have a clue how to fight this. Doctors were sharing advice and trying to figure this bug out. Big pharma has been studying aids for 40 plus years. Cancer for at least double that. Where is the aids vaccine? The cancer vaccine or cure? Hep a b c ?
So along comes a brand new bug we know nothing about and miraculously the FDA regs can suddenly be bent, trials shortened, or eliminated. In less then 10 months we go from zero to full on vaccine.
