I think the vaccine is a great thing for those that want it, as long as its not mandated for those of us who wont take it. It might be perfectly safe, and the odds are that it is, at least for most people. The problem I have is that the vaccine wont keep you from getting the virus, it will just lesson your symptoms, and you can still spread the virus even after you have been vaccinated. The head of our EMS department sent out an information sheet that said all this just last week. So why take a vaccine for a virus you likely wont even know you have if you do get it? The last I heard 98% of those who get it will have a very mild case, and the vaccine is only 95% effective. They should stop testing tomorrow and this would all be over in a week. Stopping testing won't stop 3-4000 Americans from dying every day from covid.

My wife and I are both past 65. I can't figure out why anyone that age would refuse the vaccine. Did you also refuse the polio vaccine?
Jim Because this one was rushed. This has been being worked on for a few years now. It was developed for the first SARS outbreak and modified for this one. Kind of like the flu vaccine is every year.

If Fauci was a quack why did Trump choose him to represent his administration as the pandemic expert? You would have thought he was thoroughly vetted.

I'll get the vaccine when I am able too. I don't believe that the companies making the vaccines and the medical personnel giving the vaccine want to harm millions of Americans.
If I caught Covid, chances are that it would not be a serious illness for me, but I don't know that for sure. Likely, more importantly, if I catch Covid, I have to close my business for 14 days and I don't want to do that.
I also believe that being vaccinated will make it less likely for me to spread the virus and I don't want to make any friends, family or customers sick.

Assuming diagnosis are correct, America has not had a great record for counting anything lately.

My daughter got her first dose of the Moderna vaccine a couple days ago. My mother in law, sister in law and niece got theirs 2 weeks ago. No ill effects to this point. I have never been an anti vaccine guy so when available I will get mine as well. I will wait until for a bit as I finished up a bout with covid just before Christmas. I am confident it is safe and have done a little research and realize this vaccine was first developed in 2004 to combat SARS but funding dried up prior to clinicals. I am just thankful the generations before us trusted vaccines. Be a lot of folks with braces fighting Polio if everyone back then subscribed to massive conspiracy theories like today. The research I done on the sars vaccine is the people that took it and then got sars all died.

My daughter in law works at a nursing home here in Down East Maine. A week and a 1/2 ago all of the residents got the vaccine. Last week all of the residents that got the vaccine tested positive (maybe its common). Today my daughter in law has tested positive. She follows the protocol to a tee. They experts are no smarter then a dam coon

I wish Fauci would just go away, quickly. How many lies has he told us....for our good? He is a full blown idiot.
