There's a bunch of posts about who isn't going to get it, but I'm curious if any of you will. I'm not getting it, but I just found out one of my trump supporting friends got his today. So this made me think, are there any people here who will get it just because?

I have basically every vaccine under the sun and I won't be getting this one.

No plans to get the vaccine here. The virus has >99.9% survival rate in a healthy adult and we don't even know how long the vaccine provides immunity for; it could be as little as 6 months. It seems like short-term side effects are pretty minimal (a good sign), but we won't understand the long-term side effects for a while.

with the technology they have now developed, I will NEVER be getting another shot of anything the rest of my life.

Why would I get this vaccine? It's not like COVID-19 is this very deadly disease that will kill me, like say smallpox.

It can be very deadly. But usually only in the very obese.

I've already got the 5.56 vaccine

Never.

It's my line in the sand.

https://youtu.be/P6O6FqYYImk This interview tells you everything you need to know about the vaccine . The CEO of the company who made it, is 69 years old and won't take it.

Maybe in a couple years once there is more data on it, its effectiveness, and its side effects.

No but my husband is hoping he won't when he finishes his training and becomes an airline pilot.

I got 3 months to think about it sounds like.

Maybe. I won’t be first in line to get it though. I still need to do more research. As a medical professional that understands how a vaccine works, I know it likely will be just fine. I know a respected virologist who agrees that it shouldn’t be a worry as well. But still, the government has been wrong before. And I don’t trust that it’s safe just because they said it was. I’m evaluating my options. The only real reason I would get it is to protect some of the elderly people I care about.
