I will not be getting any jab. But I think 100 in 12+ million is pretty low risk. Even if it is 1000. In the TV ads for various medicines a lot of time is spent on the risks “Using this may cause....”. I wonder what the numbers are on those complications for everyday medicines?
I’m more concerned with the “unknown unknowns” or however that speech went is that Rumsfield put it prior to going into Iraq.
Found it:
“Reports that say that something hasn’t happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know.
We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know.
But there are also unknown unknowns—the ones we don’t know we don’t know. And if one looks throughout the history of our country and other free countries, it is the latter category that tends to be the difficult ones.”
I was sitting in a dentist chair today and the dental assistant asked me point blank if I was vaccinated.
I have always been fast on my feet and under pressure, and I blurted out:
“Not yet, I am waiting for the pill.”
That seemed to keep her calm—did not want her to take out any hostility on my teeth. :-)
Next visit I will have to come up with another clever excuse.
