Anyone actually going to get a vaccine if it comes? Assuming many of the typical tests and hurdles were bypassed to expedite it not sure I’d want to risk that when I’m at low risk for corona

Vaccines aren’t meant solely to protect you. By getting vaccinated you also will protect those around you.

Lol y’all, the vaccine will have been tested on humans WELL before they start giving it to the masses. Yes, I’ll get it.

I would, like I do for flu even though low risk.

Many on here saying no to the vaccine are likely the same people saying they won’t go out until there is a vaccine.

Considering I don’t get the flu shot (and never get the flu), I’m not going to get it until they’ve figured out the possible side effects. The only way I’d get it initially is if my job required it

I’m not saying I’m against vaccines, I’m just not interested in being a guinea pig for one of them

Yes, absolutely. Low risk means very little with this virus. I have a friend who died from it — early 30s with no health conditions. It’s a crapshoot how your body will respond.

THIS. I feel like so many people think: I’m not old or immunocompromised. I’ll be part of the statistic with no reaction/low symptoms. This reminds of reading the statistic of like 86% of Americans thinking they’re smarter than most people lol. No one thinks they’re dumb; no one thinks they’ll die.

No, as I do not want the government to insert a tracking chip inside me.

I think the point is that a Covid vaccine is rushed, may take shortcuts because protocols were skipped and may be unsafe.

Idk. If it’s found to cause cancer or blindness, that’d suck... but I doubt we’d be ThAT incompetent.

No one is at “low risk for corona.” Do you mean lower risk of serious complications or death?

They mean low risk to themselves, high risk to others. Screw everyone else, I’ll be fine. What do I care if I kill my grandparent, or friend with asthma, or pregnant coworker, or neighbor with an autoimmune disease.

Disgusting.
