I didn’t downvote you. I do wish we had a longer trial period, and I don’t like taking something that hasn’t been through the full duration trials. Here is what convinced me:
- we now have more than a billion vaccinations done globally, with no mass surge of negative side effects.
- virtually every politician in every party has gotten vaccinated. Including most of the people telling you not to get vaccinated.
- the vaccine produces way fewer antibody targets than the actual virus, so I would expect that if there was a long term negative effect from the spike produced by the vaccine, we would get that or worse from the virus.
- the virus is really contagious and seems to be mutating toward being more contagious over time.
- thus, you’re probably going to get it, which means one way or the other you’re probably going to make a lot of antibodies to spike protein no matter how you slice it.
