I'm not getting the vaccine because everything surrounding COVID 19 is just full of partisan propaganda. I'll reconsider in a year or two.
That being said, I haven't been able to find any corroborating evidence for all these anecdotes. Anecdotes are not a substitute for data. Data is in short supply.
This is what I know so far: The vaccine was fast tracked and there's no long term study. All makers of the vaccines have been given immunity from lawsuits for damages caused by the vaccines. Trump says we should take the vaccines. I don't know anyone who has had side effects that lasted over two days. I only know about 20 people who have had the vaccine. I don't believe any medical professionals. I especially don't believe anyone working in government or media that is a medical professional. I don't believe anecdotes I can't verify. I am not especially concerned by the short term side effects so far because the most catastrophic ones that I've come across, like this one, seem extremely rare and dubious. I am very concerned with the long term side effects. I'm under the age of 50. I am not fat. I'll take my chances with getting the virus and fighting it naturally.
