Will you be taking the COVID vaccine

  • Believe…in science?
    I thought science was based on unrefutable proof?
    Send me study of COVID vaccine and I shall look through the methods, conflict of interest, results, and most importantly…sponsors

I figure its better than having nothing, especially since I have already had COVID I don’t see why taking the vaccine could be dangerous or fruitless.

you can still get it and even if you dont die from it, you can still spread it towards others who are more vulnerable.
Even if the vaccine doesnt prevent you from getting the virus its still a good band-aid against it.

People who drain economy and make things worse for everyone?
Just quarantine them or something?
99.8% Survival Rate for all ages.

I guess I’m just ignorant :frpensive:

what kind of argument is that? Do you mean the elderly? They arent the only people vulnerable, even young people can be vulnerable

Sadly that doesn’t quite work, there is always some way for the virus to get in, and some people might not go into quarantine.

Not really,


and also lets switch the numbers, does 1,79M deaths worldwide sound better to you?

Ideally I would wait until March at earliest so that a lot of data would be available on the side effects of the vaccine (don’t want to take the vaccine and end up having some long-term health issue because of it, my chance of getting the virus as an introvert is low as is). I also follow COVID guidelines to the core so I’m not entirely concerned about getting it by default, with or without a vaccine.

If social distancing works, why vaccine? If vaccine works, why social distancing afterwards?

Social distancing doesn’t work 100% as well as certain masks, they’re mostly a band-aid to help prevent the spread but it doesn’t prevent it 100%

Have you heard of this newly mutated coronavirus? The vaccine might prevent the currently-going covid but not this new one, that’s one reason I can think of it.

If you actually read the website you cited, it actually answers your question.

“It’s important to be clear about what we know and what we don’t know about what the vaccine does. What we know is that the Pfizer vaccine is very effective at preventing symptomatic illness and severe disease. That means the vaccine appears to prevent people from getting sick enough that they develop symptoms, and very importantly, it prevents people from becoming so severely ill that they end up in the hospital.”
/…/
“Here’s what the studies don’t yet show. They haven’t looked at whether the vaccine prevents someone from carrying COVID-19 and spreading it to others.”

Empty words without data to back it up.
I thought vaccines worked by herd immunity?

Also you dont allow small business to open but you allow riots on your streets, un-socially distanced, to happen? In Belgrade we actually had riots earlier this year too, the government fucked them up pretty quickly and now we are doing better than America.

honestly…

probably not…

younger people aren’t as affected and it’s been cobbled together so quickly I’m concerned about it…better that the more vulnerable people get it…

im not the government :fr:

i thought you read the news :fr:

@Kandy the mutation is only more contagious to my knowledge, not more fatal

@DarkLordDurza by all means I do agree the US gives way way too much money to people who don’t do shit
but if they can pay on their own its fine


might be worth noting that the vast majority of covid deaths aren’t solely from covid

70% more transmissible means nothing, I want to know mortality rate.

it’s more against older people who’s immune systems are weakening

and extremely young children

even extremely young children aren’t really at threat from covid, its almost solely older people

yeah

that’s pretty much it imo

Hospitals get more funding for each positive test. I believe a Czech politician tested a glass of water for COVID and it tested positive?
