No I'm not full of shit and no the mrna vaccines are not safe enough for my liking. Neither is Covid, but frankly at my age the risk is meager and I choose not to get that either. Hence mask social distancing and keeping my hands and surfaces clean.
Frankly at this point it is much harder to get covid than the vaccine in this country. Much harder.
In order to acquire the infinitesimally tiny chance of dying from the virus you have to first be infected by the virus which itself is a low probability event, whereas once you sign off on the "vaccine" you've taken it 100%
So it's not just a comparison between the fatality rate of the virus vs. the potential fatality rate of the "vaccine", but between the fatality rate of the virus times the positivity rate vs. the potential fatality rate of the "vaccine" * 100%, e.g. 0.1%*1% vs. 0.1%*100%
So that's that. Zero risk for me for the time being. When they give us more options I'll get vaccinated.
Also I actually care about international travel colliric, probably more so than Godstud. However I'm far more realistic than most. Even if we were JaBbEd 10x tomorrow with 10 different vaccines, we probably won't be allowed to leave our countries for leisure anytime soon within the next 5+ years, simply because this kind of virus is going nowhere. It will take years for people especially governments to warm to the fact that this is indeed just another influenza and it is going nowhere.
Furthermore the more we vaccinate against ever more rare and localised covid strains en-masse, the more likely it becomes a serious virus as shown in this sorry tale of the once benign chicken virus that after millennia of doing absolutely nothing to chickens became 100% lethal thanks to our intervention 90 years ago.
