Being skeptical of something that was completed in months where the process is typically years doesn’t make one anti-science or scared. The vaccine should be taken but also met with a healthy dose of skepticism, and thumping your chest about the vaccine being nothing to worry about is disingenuous at best when the reality is we don’t fucking know. All we know is that we *hope* it won’t have any yet undetermined side effects worse than covid.

The devil you know


Which option here is the devil you know? We don't know for sure the long-term side effects of COVID.

Plus, taking the vaccine means you are subject to it's side effects, and you also limit the spread of COVID. If you don't take it, you're spreading COVID while suffering COVID's effects.

Obviously the devil you know is covid and its effects whereas we have no clue what the long term effects of the vaccine will be. We may not know all of covid effects long term as you said, but I think we have a pretty good handle on what it’s capable of.

You’re not “spreading covid and suffering its effects” by not taking the vaccine are you kidding me.

You’re at risk of spreading it and suffering from it sure, and that’s the devil you do know.

Look I’m not anti-vaccine and even said it needs to be taken, I just think you and surfpunk are being disingenuous. If you honestly can’t understand why people would be skeptic of a vaccine that was rushed through its approval than you’re probably not on a much higher plane of thinking then someone who’s rationale is “vaccine is big pharma is bad!!”

I'll get the vaccine and abide by the mitigation efforts as long as the experts tell me to because I'm not a knuckle-dragging retard.

The vaccine isn't proven to significantly reduce spread.

Even if it did, the people who are vulnerable will have the vaccine.

At some point we just have to stop being fucking losers and live our lives.

At some point you need to man up and be responsible.

It’ll never happen with that clown from what I can see. You’re pretty much asking a cat to be a dog..
