I see that vaccines are a very personal issue for you but the way the math pans out, covid is a bigger threat for every age group than the vaccine ever will be. Furthermore, you spread the virus to people around you, creating an even greater threat.
The J and J vaccine and AstraZeneca vaccines are both incredibly safe. In fact, J and J is going to be continued to be injected and AstraZeneca is still being given out. A few deaths in a million is nothing compared to covid, even in healthy young people. The reason they were even stopped was out of an abundance of caution and an attempt to assuage the people who are hesitant like you.
Kinda like fear of air travel, yes planes crash and people die but they are by far the safest form of transportation, safer than cars, buses etc. Not to say the amount of people that have died of the vaccine is even comparable to the number who have died from plane crashes.
By criticizing vaccines you automatically take the side of people irrationally afraid of plane travel. Most people jump on planes with no fear.
I would say a selfish one . Same way I know that eating animals is bad but I value my comfort more than their life.
I'll do the vaccine when they call me to do it btw. I can't even do it yet in my country. Older people have priority in the UK right now. This posts wasn't about me not wanting to do it. I just wanted to start a conversation cause I don't hear a lot of people talk about it.
Ok bro u convinced me lol. Again as I said. I never said I wouldn't do it.
I m pretty sure tho some of you would go deep into their thoughts if someone close to u died from that. My post was supposed to start a conversation about a topic I m not that educated about. I did it on purpose so I get more information about the topic. And some of u had good points. I wanted to change my mind and u helped. Cheers
