My Democratic neighbors and their daughters have been vaccinated(two shots each).

My former neighbor got her shot recently in MA.

They reported no problems.

I signed up the first day I could. I expect to have to wait a month since I’m 62.

Something like 50 million people have gotten jabbed with mRNA vaccines with at most modest side effects, if any.

Well, the best they can say is they had no immediate adverse reaction...

“with at most modest side effects, if any”

In the short term. We have no idea what the long term side effects might be.

Yet. Can you guarantee there won't be any 1, 2, 5 years from now?

Short term.

What is the long term prognosis?

Nobody knows nor can know simply because there hasn’t been enough time that has elapsed to find out.

Of 93 vaccines in the CDC's VAER database (voluntary reporting of adverse reactions), a specific Polio Vaccine developed in 2004 had more reported deaths. Then Pfizer and Moderna's Covid-19 deaths are next in magnitude, followed by PReVNAR 13, another Pfizer vaccine which was FDA Approved in February 24, 2010.

So about 1 month into release of the Pfizer and Moderna Covid-19 Vaccines, they are #2 and #3 on the list out of 93 Vaccines for reported deaths. The vaccine which was #1 in causing the most deaths had been in use since 2004. The vaccine ranked #4 in causing death had been in use since 2010.

NOte the reminder that reporting a death does not mean the vaccine caused the death. Tracking or reporting deaths or other reactions can eventually lead to analysis which point to problems with the vaccines or rule out the vaccine as the cause. But unfortunately many reports must be made first in order for a pattern to be detected, and then time spent being evaluated. :(

I started looking at this database after I found AmericanThinker's article on FR:

How safe are the COVID vaccines? Here is how COVID vaccines rank among 94 vaccine types in terms of reported post-vaccine adverse effects.

I believe as AmericanThinker has turned the light on the numbers, this database will soon be distorted. They may not be able to remove reported deaths (too conspicuous) but I suspect they may increase reported deaths for other vaccines. WE'll see if I am too cynical for my own good!

At 71, with 5 co-morbidities, I have very little choice, though I’m getting 5-6 days/ gal on my Jeep HEMI. lol.

Talk to us about it’s efficacy in six months if you haven’t stroked out.
