So, with the vaccine almost ready for the covid-19 virus..... would you take the shot?

Some folks are leery, are you?

the tests seem to be very hit and miss..  false positive, take 2 tests with opposite results..  so what is the vaccine going to do..  so not sure at this date..

Yea a little. At this point no I will not. Little to hasty, since it's usually 5 years before vacines are approved.

I'm torn. I'm an RN who works in senior living, who knows if it'll be mandatory for us. A trusted colleague who has been very closely following says its safe, he'd take it and the compounds in it are all known to be safe. I fully trust his judgment on it. Though like others, a little skeptical about how it was rushed.

Sure I will take it.  There will be a lot of them dispensed before it gets to me.  That should give me some intel.

I will, that's what my brother did for a good share of his career at Fort Dodge Animal Health is blend vaccines for companion animals & he believes it will be good to go. Besides with it being used for a while in Europe before we get it they'll have a very good idea of the efficacy & safety.

From what I've been told, yes, you can get it again. There are several different strains of the coronavirus, and the corona-19 has mutated enough that it will be hard to pin it down with just one vaccine. Just like the flu, they have to keep readjusting the cocktail to try and match what they believe the current flu will be.
Will I get the shot? My best answer is "maybe".... I'm on the fence.

Nope. I don't get the flu shot and I will not get this one either. They can keep their micro GPS tracking chip.  :nerd:

Nope,don't trust it if the gov't is pushing it,canada is pushing the vacine as well,if folks refuse the gov't intends to black list non-believers and are pushing to isolate these folks from the general population.scary deal for all.

Yep.

Despite the 9X.XXX non-fatal / recovery rate...  I don't want to get covid.  If you catch it and recover with little or no ill effects and don't pass it to anyone else, God bless you.

My young, fit, healthy, active, adult daughter was a long-hauler who had scary symptoms that lasted for many weeks and has anxiety regarding what long term damage may have been done.

My age and health condition don't put me in any particular risk group, but many of my family and friends are.  The last thing I want is to unknowingly contract the virus and pass it to them - or anyone else for that matter.

If Bill Gates can figure out how to get a gub'mint-sponsored GPS tracking chip thru the diameter of the syringe needle... he wins.

gates,soro...they're goal is to lighten the load of seniors,massive die off from what I've read,relief on ss $ and healthcare doing so.first sign of a vacine was for folks under 65yrs old...hell as a younster we all had polio and small pox vacines no political BS like we see today.To each they're own,but agree with glenn this rush vacine raises a red flag in my eyes.

Yup, a little leery here too. Let's see what it does to the Brits first. If they all the sudden develop good teeth, discover how to make decent tasting food and it makes their women amorous, I'm down with it!  :happy1:

After seeing what the girlfriend has gone through the last 2 weeks and still not out of the woods yet after contracting Covid-19, I’ll be first in line when I can get the shot.
if you kick me when I'm down you better pray I don't get up.

My brother was spot on from the beginning when he said they would be lucky to have it ready by 2021 & he has a much better idea of the process than most. So no 2nd thoughts here, I'll be in line close behind Coffee, DE, LPS, & Steve-o.
