I never buy the first model of a new car.
Same idea applies to new medical breakthroughs.
Now, if I had some incurable cancer by current means, I would take some crazy experimental stuff. Not for a cold/flu.
I’m not old, and in excellent shape/health.
Funny you mentioned the first model regarding cars. We are the same way. Let them work out the kinks. If we hadn’t been coerced in order to see our grandson, I doubt we would have succumbed. It was a horrible choice to have to make. Now the kids aren’t so worried. I keep reminding them that the emergency is over. They are beginning to catch on. We are also in excellent health and decent shape. We stay pretty active. We intend to keep it this way, God willing.
