Are you more wary of vaccines going forward?

How about other vaccines — like polio, measles, and flu? Also poisonous? BTW I’m fully vaccinated and boosted, and while I had a mild case of Covid, no hospital, just a lot of Kleenex. If you find yourself sickened by Covid and in a Hospital bed, it’s too late to beg for vaccine. There is a fairly effective treatment, Paxlovid, but I understand you have to get it very early in the disease. Or maybe it‘s poisonous?

El C, it's the molecular delivery via the mRna that is the issue. If we'd been offered a covid vaccine that contained the actual virus, as with other anti-virus vaccines, we wouldn't have an argument. The mRna vaccine is totally new, and before 2019, untested by medical science standards.

It's not about vaccines, it's the way this vaccine works on a molecular level; using mRna delivery.

Well, just did a little research, and lo and behold you may have a point. IMHO it is not as significant as you imply, but there is enough that I don‘t feel justified pursuing this further, but I still expect to be in line for the next booster.
