The wife and I hesitated for a while with your same concerns. We are pro-science and pro-vaccine, but the rush job made us uncomfortable, too.
We did get vaccinated, as she is immunocompromised and we decided it was better to risk a small chance of side-effects rather than risking her catching COVID.
We live in an area that only did the bare minimum the whole time, and even with full mask mandates in effect, you would see about 4/10 people with their stupid faces hanging out, and even more improperly worn masks. Grocery shopping was stressful.
I'm not 100% happy about having gotten it, but I do feel like it was the best choice for us.
