There is truth to your comment, but don't expect people to validate your idea.
It's in our best collective interest for everyone to take this vaccine even if there's a 0.01% chance it has negative side effects.
Even on an individual level, the cost-benefit of taking the vaccine is a no-brainer. Even if there's a 0.01% chance of negative side effects, the individual benefit of re-opening society far outweighs that risk.
It's true you can freeload and reap the benefits without the small risk, but if everyone thinks this way, there are no benefits to go around. Can't you just be a team player?
To put things in perspective, a 0.01% risk is like going skydiving once, or getting out of bed and doing your usual routine for a week.
It goes without saying that if the general public doesn't get vaccinated, you should definitely get vaccinated because the risk of catching COVID is worse than the risk of this vaccine.
