The vaccines are totally safe. Except that in a year or so, you may develop an unquenchable desire to eat people's brains and other organs. Pay that no mind...

I'm still waiting for my turn.
As soon as it's available to me, I'm getting it.
So far, I've been lucky and haven't gotten the virus, but I'm not about to play the odds if I don't have to.

There is always that story about how the seat belt killed some poor smuck in an accident. Reality is , the percent of people saved by them is so incredibly high, it makes no sense to not wear them.

It’s too bad that statistics isn’t required in school.

I decided for myself to TAKE the vaccine. The VA called and I took the first available appointment. At this point, it's all about the odds. And any rational person should be able to see the vaccine greatly improves your odds of escaping an ugly disease and/or death.

The vaccine is safe and effective. I had my second shot a month ago, and had no side effects.

Science says the more people that are protected by the vaccine the less covid will spread. The less infections we have the less mutations will develop thus making everyone safer.

I'm retired and financially able to quarantine myself for the rest of my life but I took the vaccine because I want to stop this horrible disease not just for me but for everyone.

I had covid the beginning of October, I've tested antibodies last week and there are none remaining. I'll be in line as soon as I'm eligible.

Appropriate name.

Do as you think best for you. Then start doing what you think important and don’t waste time looking back. Btw, I’m ninety and had both shots with no reactions.

If you don't get that vaccine, your username is spot on.

Very pleased to register your support of the FDA as a socialist entity. Also, all three covid vaccines have been approved by the FDA.

I think that is a no-brainer! Pluses for the vaccine are in the event that you contract Sars-Cov-2 the worst outcomes will likely be prevented as in hospitalization and death. You do not take the vaccine and contract Sars-Cov-2 and have known or unknown underlying medical conditions, I think that you can guess the likely outcome.

I am allergic to a certain drug and have food allergy and had a serious reaction to a vaccine back in 1997. I was vaccinated against Sar-Cov-2 a week ago. I did not even experience the mild flu like symptoms that some people experience post vaccination.

Well, I've had mine at age 71 and feel a HUGE burden lifted. So far, I haven't seen thousands of war-weary nurses and doctors in ICU units in every hospital in the country working under enormous pressure 24/7 trying fruitlessly to save (but losing thousands every day)... those who had their covid vaccines. You make and take your best choices in life. You will live or die by those choices. I guess there are too many people on the planet, anyway.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, BUT, you FOUGHT for your Country in someone else's country to 'protect' the people of YOUR Country BUT you are unsure as whether or not to HELP Fight the C-19 Threat in YOUR OWN Country by being vaccinated.
How in the name of all things sane does work out?

They are approved, approved for emergency use. These are vaccines that are based on previous vaccines they have been in use for years which is why they were able to produce them so quickly.

You can choose not to vax, that's your right but if you don't you should still isolate and/or wear a mask everywhere you go because it's not just about you but about you spreading a deadly virus. Don't be a Typhoid Mary.

COVID isn't approved the the FDA either. Get the vaccine.

I don't believe vaccines not approved by the FDA can be administered. by the V.A. or anyone else.

Waiting for my turn to get the vaccine. But, I'm waiting until my girlfriend can get it, She is 5 years younger than me.

. . . hmmmm -- why let a GLOBAL PANDEMIC influence your decision whether “Emergency Authorization Order” is reasonable ?

"Update - March 1st Dr John Campbell Covid-19"

Oh come on don’t be a coward, be like the billions of folks who will eventually get this vaccine and step up to the plate and donate your body to science

Britain has done a lot of the testing for you with over 20 million people injected. No major issues reported so far. I was fortunate enough to receive the first shot of the Pfizer vaccine in January. Apart from a sore shoulder, and feeling a bit under the weather on the evening of the second day afterwards, it’s been fine. Go for it.

Still worth it lost two friends and nephew in the last week
