because they have undergone extensive clinical trials

No, they have not, and that's the problem with them.

Look, I took the vaccine knowing that the risks of taking this vaccine was higher than for most vaccines. For me, it's a probability thing. I'm 71 with underlying health problems and if I do get Covid, it would probably be fatal, so I took the vaccine.

But people recognize that the vaccines themselves can and do cause more problems than with other vaccines and so they refuse to take the vaccine. I respect that. Individuals should be allowed to weigh the probabilities for themselves and not be forced by a totalitarian government to take them.

Agree...Life, IMO, is largely a process of the individual practicing the art of the "calculated risk". Arguments pro or con for the jab on a society-wide basis are of no concern to me. Each individual, even if the jab is a condition of employment etc., must choose their own approach. Criticizing those who take or decline the jab is, for me, a waste of time.
