@angelobottone better you than me taking that risk :)

@freemo @angelobottone wait are you saying there is a relevant risk to taking the vaccine?
Not exactly how I would word it.. The vaccine skipped otherwise critical safety trials that under normal circumstances would never be allowed for obvious safety reasons. There are quite a few doctors who arent happy about this and countless efforts to block the approval of the vaccines due to safety concerns (and in some cases doctors even resigned in protest to make that point known). So there is no doubt a legitimate concern there.
But that does not mean the vaccines are dangerous.. what it means is we have no idea how dangerous the vaccines are, they could turn out to be very dangerous they could turn out to be perfectly safe. The fact that their safety is not garunteed to the same extent as vaccines that go through the full safety tests is the real issue, and the consequences of that wont be known until people start dying in a year (or not).
@freemo @angelobottone ok maybe..
But here’s how I see it
If you take the vaccine, it’s basically just some protein in your body that looks like covid. Nothing really toxic except maybe in trace amounts.
It is near impossible to modify the genome.
While this is a new type of vaccine that is massively distributed, pharmaceutical companies have been working on it a lot, and they reduced risks over time.
The risk of getting covid is very real.
The risk of permanent complications, even if you’re young, is real too.
What do you choose, a small risk that things goes wrong, or a bigger risk that it can go wrong . For me, the choice is clear, I will #vaccinate
