Still not taking an experimental biological agent.
I am not being a guinea pig for big pharma when they have exempted themselves from any liability of harm done by their vaccine.
THAT tells me, it’s not safe.
Maybe. On the other hand this is the USA and anyone who has a heart attack within 60 days would come home from the hospital to find a lawyer on their doorstep urging them to sue the vaccine manufacturer. We never got tort reform that people on places like ... well here, actually ... used to say we urgently needed. So that would happen for sure, every ingrown toenail or cataract would be blamed on the vaccine and lawsuits would fly. And this was short circuited through the FDA processes so the manufacturers can't really point to that to defend themselves.
There may in fact be real problems with these vaccines but frivolous lawsuits would have been a guarantee and to get them to release them quickly the government indemnified them. It's just the way it is.
Only 4 more days left for me to post on FR!
(Moderna vax date: Jan 15)
How do they know it protects against a “new” strain and what did they know about it back when they were making these vaccines?
Do people still get a flu shot these days?
Sounds like total BS to me.
Everyone I know whose taken it has done fine so far... and most of them are very relieved.
I am a guinea pig. Part of the Moderna trial, and haven’t had any problems other than a little soreness after the first shot last year. Don’t know for sure if I’m in the vaccine or placebo group, but even with the slight risk I felt it was important to contribute to the study as an at risk individual. We need to get this behind us, and the faster we can get significant numbers vaccinated the better. The protection from liability was a necessary evil in order to get things moving or we would be in lockdown for many years.
